I'm surprised you're having such difficulty believing Afghans could mistake NATO's intent and motivation. They don't believe what you believe, they don't know what you know. They're different from us. Figure it out.
No you're the one coming up with the idea, now back it up.

Saying it is not 'beyond the realm of rationality' isn't exactly evidence to prove your point.

Being different doesn to necessarily make them believe that the NATO led force is a Christian occupation army. Again, there have been numerous polls carried out in Afghanistan, certainly you could come up with one shred of evidence to support your claim.
