i don't know about the iraqi side but in iran there is no negative sentiment towards iraqis because of the war.
now don't get me wrong there is negative sentiment because of general arabphobia and because of rumours that iraqis are buying out housing supplies in some cities like Mashhad but most of the hate was directed towards the ba'th party and Saddam which have since now been deposed.
i have heard nothing bad about iraqis from people that went on religious pilgrimage in iraq however i also think there's negative sentiment from iraqis to iranians more so because of the belief that Iran is controlling iraq and meddling in its politics rather than the war itself although i wouldn't know anything about that.
This gives me more reason to be optimistic about long-term effects and grudges from warfare. Thanks for that.
