I dunno. A bit of possibly-relevant detailomancy, though: In the BBC photo-essay about Saddam's statue being toppled, it appears that it wasn't quite the unconditionally-welcoming jubilation one would expect from that effect; the crowd got "angry" about the American flag getting flown from the top of their own statue-destruction, and it was quickly taken down. (Weird; they've changed the pictures! The earlier version of that story noted that "the flag was quickly replaced with an Iraqi flag". It -- and the sequence of headlines on the ticker earlier -- also made it clear that the Iraqis had been trying to topple it for a while before the Marines showed up to help.)

As I say, though, that's mere detailomancy, not a broad analysis.
