Arcane are you  crazy?  Their are a lot more modernized middle eastern countries that Iraq.  I have been to a couple different countries and I saw nothing that even Iraq.  You need to know what you are talking about before you start saying stuff like that.  One other thing I want to tell you about.  If the Iraqis didn't want us there all they had to do is run us out,  but they are going through what we did  in our civil war, Losing life's, homes, family and what not they know that it is a necessary evil but most of them are ready for a change.  There have been more business open up in the last year than any other year in their history.  Soon as they can show that their military is able and willing we will be out but no sooner.  It would be a disgrace to the US and its people if we left now and let total hell rain down upon them.

Mission\nThe Army’s mission is to fight and win our Nation’s wars by providing prompt, sustained land dominance across the full range of military operations and spectrum of conflict in support of combatant commanders. We do this by: \n\n• Executing Title 10 and Title 32 United States Code directives, to include organizing, equipping, and training forces for the conduct of prompt and sustained combat operations on land. \n\n• Accomplishing missions assigned by the President, Secretary of Defense and combatant commanders, and Transforming for the future.

By providing intelligence about impending attacks on Iraq (2003) to the Iraqis in order to help them fight against the US.  Wait a second, that wouldn't really be helpful, now would it?\n\nActually, they are cooperating by arresting suspects in Germany and trying them in court on terrorism charges.  They also continue to produce schnitzel and wurst in large quanitites in hopes that the terrorists will eat a lot and be too sleepy to do bad things.

There are only two jobs in the Military: Infantry and Infantry Support. All the other jobs in the military are simply designed to help and assist ground troops. So take that for what it's worth... \n\nThe United States Army is transitioning to a new model in which they will have 10 Divisions, each division has 4 Brigades with 2 Battalions per brigade. There are 8 Infantry Divisions: \n\n1st Infantry, 2nd Infantry, 3rd Infantry, 4th Infantry, 10th Mountain (Light Infantry basically), 25th Light Infantry, 82nd Airborne, 101st Air Assault.) I believe there are also a few more Stryker Infantry Brigades (4 to be precise) and 2 more seperate Airborne Brigades and the Ranger Regiment with 3 more battalions. So all told, you've got 79 Infantry Battalions (approximately, I might be forgetting one or two.) \n\nThere are also four types of infantry... \n\nLight Infantry (Traditional grunts. Walk everywhere and carry everything on their backs.) \n\nInfantry (Mechanized Infantry, they travel in M2 Bradley Fighting Vehicles and can fight mounted in these vehicles or dismount and operate like Light Infantry.) \n\nAirborne Infantry (Operate like Light Infantry only they get to battle by jumping in on parachutes. Often times are behind enemy lines because of the nature of the airborne aspect.) \n\nAir Assault Infantry (Operate like Light Infantry only get to the battle by riding in on helicopters. Again, often used to attack behind enemy lines and "vertically envelop" enemy positions) \n\nRangers (A more elite Airborne Infantry used for spearhead operations, tougher missions or special operations)

yes there are some American soldiers killing Iraqi's.  However the ones being killed by the Americans are not your typical Iraqi.  They are the ones who like to murder their fellow Iraqi's, such as when Saddam gassed to death over 30 thousand Kurdish Iraqi's.\n\nSo, basically, the American soldiers are protecting more current and future lives than can ever be imagined.

They are towards leaving Iraq.  They really don't have a plan right now.  They wanted to use scare tactics against Americans, so they get the vote.  As of now, I haven't heard any plans yet.

We are training Iraqi armed forces as well as police as an ongoing project.  The country has many internal problems between the different factions there.  The insurgents trying to incite a Civil War does not make the situation any better.  Almost daily we hear about attacks against the Iraqi Police, it is amazing that there are even people who want those jobs.  Things will eventually stabilize and the Iraqi's will be able to take over.

It is civilians on the battlefield.  They are hired to plan civilian roles for our troops taring for the War in Iraqi.\n\nGod Bless You and The Southern People.

We're not at war with Iraq. We are helping the democratically elected Iraq government fight the terrorist insurgents and the foreign terrorist invaders (from Iran and Syria). \n\nI don't want to sound harsh, but do you have the slightest clue as to what is going on at all?

Don't worry..its just a staging area.....i think the Salvation Army is the next group being called up for deployment. They'll have to change (no pun intented)tactics for Iraq.

Forever.  The army is already building PERMANENT bases in Iraq.  And to the statement that the Iraqi government is doing well because they are making decisions?  Anyone can make decisions, it's enforcing them that is tricky part and the government has no influence outside of the green zone.
