The problem with the ranking is it does not measure the intangibles -- COURAGE, DISCIPLINE and PATRIOTISM.
Iraq (not counting the Kurds) is in the top 10 but when it comes to the above three, they are pretty USELESS.

Iraq in theory had a military so powerful they were a threat to the region. Now they are a black hole of US spending that can't protect their own sovereignty.
