Iraq is well on its way to becoming a failed state. Here's the latest news, fourteen hours ago:
Quote:
Insurgents unleashed a barrage of coordinated car bombings and small-arms attacks across Iraq on Thursday, killing at least 40 people in what Iraqi officials called a ?frantic race? to shatter people?s faith in the government?s strained grip on security.
The worst of the violence was concentrated here in Iraq?s capital, where more than two dozen people were killed in explosions and where fusillades of gunfire transformed the morning commute into a landscape of carnage.

Basically, what we did was "liberate" Iraq from stability, order, and Saddam-conducted brutality and delivered it to a Shia dominated government which is pushing for a civil war against the Sunni minority. As the Sunni-Shia civil war develops in Iraq, we will see that al-Qaeda has returned as a part of the Sunni forces that are organizing to fight against the U.S.-made, Iran-supported Shia tyranny in Baghdad. We replaced one tyrannical government with another, and as you can see from reading that article, Al-Qaeda is alive and well in Iraq. Iraq was a terrible defeat for the U.S. This soldier's frustration is a clear example of the clusterfuck we got involved in over there. Complete waste of 4,600 lives.
