Who are Iraqis?
"Iraqis, residents of Iraq, obviously. Iraq, according to my previous post, is an arbitrarily assembled area of land, created after World War I by Britain. I know that might sound over-simplifying of reality, but it's more or less true. Iraqis are 75% Arab, 25% Kurd, with other multiple 1%'s. Before the Muslim invasion of Iraq, very few Arabs were there, Assyrians and Chaldeans were the majority and they were christian, today only a paucity of them remains. So when Muslims came they brought with them their wives and kids like any other colonizing force and you probably know all about how they made Christians pay taxes for being christian etc."
