Here's what I gather...
They already know Saddam is spineless and will resort to ugly tactics. Planting bombs and blaming the coalition, killing civilians to blame the coalition, killing civilians for not fighting, launching missiles into other civilian locations (including a city in Northern Iraq), etc.
They hold the coalition to extremely high standards just so they have something to bitch about, even though deep down they know that the coalition isn't targeting civilians, but military targets.

I was just reading earlier today... there are several reports that the marketplace bombing that took place in Baghdad is still up in the air, and it was quite possibly an Iraqi ploy to place more blame on the coalition.
Whether this is true or not, I don't know. BUT, we have seen how Saddam is willing to play this ball game. There are no rules.
The bombing could have very well been an Iraqi "blame game".
