From what I've been hearing, there is no widely recognized Iraqi government in place, and the pro-Iranian party is making waves about the results of the last election there. There are concerns about a pro-Iranian coup and even an Iranian incursion. With Iran on the verge of a nuclear weapons capability, this does not bode well for the entire Middle East.

Hate to say it.....we can stay there forever but it will never overcome the reality that the Iraqi's themselves will one day need to stand-up for their freedom.....

Unfortunately, that day has come....if you really want it....you will have it....it means sacrifice....and blood....but freedom is never free.

I'm no Obama supporter, but our troops did their job....now it is time for the Iraqi's to do theirs....
