"There also are signs of an unwillingness by Iraq’s leadership to commit forces to operations outside Baghdad. About 11,000 Iraqi soldiers were assigned to a U.S.-led offensive launched last month in and around Baqouba, on Baghdad’s northeastern rim. Only about 1,500 showed up, U.S. officials said." Time for us to get the heck out.

we care about preventing a civil war more than Iraqis do apparently. Sad.

i know a handful of people who have done multiple tours over there. each time they come home they are progressively more cynical about achieving anything resembling a lasting peace over there
