An American overseas in Iraq warns fellow Americans about local sentiments

Iraqis feel betrayed by the US because EO have them on the ban list, so he asked if he'd be safe venturing out; they replied no, locals (not extremists like ISIS or militias) would kidnap, torture, and behead him within an hour and go on video for all to see. His retort: If you'd kill me here, why should I welcome you to my country? If this hatred persists, why assume they'd behave differently in the US? They won’t.
