Why can't the USA military stop all the killings in Iraq?

Newbiegranny is correct.  I believe the only answer, horrible as it may seem, is to get the USAmerican soldiers [ and others ] out of the country and let them have their civil war.  The other answer, which they would have to agree to,  is to partition the country into three.  They would probably still have a civil war though.  The USA soldiers are stuck in a terrible position and I, for one, feel extremely sorry for them.  They are doing the best that they can in the circumstances.  I am not USAmerican but I urge you to use any method you can to persuade your politicians to get those poor troops out of there.

war can`t stop because there was no actual reason for it to start usa destroyed the legend of saddam but she couldn`t give iraqi people a role modle they could follow so iraqi people is looking to those who leads the country as foreingers who must be fought moreover iraqi now are classifing each other as suni and she`a and akrad this is just killing any hope to stop that war and begining the rebuild of iraq

You sound foreign, perhaps you are from Iraq. The killing of innocents will definitely  be avenged by God if not here on earth. I know that the vast majority of people in Iraq just want to live peaceful lives as do most Americans. It's just the leaders who don't do the actual fighting that keep the animosity going.

The killing is to prove to how far they are willing to go in this battle to prove their point. Their point? \n\n1. They don't want american soldiers on their territory \n2. They want Sadamn Hussein Back ( So they can get their asses beat up and deprived of freedom. Like hell they don't even want it. ) \n3. They don't want anyone controlling them unless the person in control is barbaric and cruel. \n\nMy best friend -- Pfc. Thomas who was found brutally murdered by a local insurgent militia -- that is how far they are going to go. To use a corpse of a SOLDIER in such way...to prove their point. If you ask me -- I spent 3 years in Iraq and Afghanistan -- we are dying for no cause...and as much as I hate to say it because I have lost so many buddies and friends to this damn war...This is a war fought FOR old men BY young men. They don't behead a brother to make a point. They take it out on American Soldiers and their own people to show how cruel and inhumane they can be.

you are already doing that.before you invaded iraq,all were living in peace and harmony.who went against the law (how ever the laws were strict)was punished.but after march 2003,you made a brother kill his brother in a jungle where law naver exist under your supervission.why was the army and security forces desolved and all their assets looted.how can you build such forces in short time,whereas the old ones took 82 years to build.this is the results.mellitias,gangs,undiciplined forces.total curse.what else you want.

As a soldier that just came from i raq 2 weeks ago. the only way to stop is just to call an end to it and leave, but the problem with that is that the military is so developed overthere that it would really make the US look weak, but who cares we would be out of there. Man you wouldn't believe all the money the US goes through just being over there. We are not accomplishing anything over there and that is how i see it, they don't even what our help.

I think there are something like 60 murders per day in America.  Is anyone saying we should pull out of here?\n\nAnd to all those that are saying "We DO count them", I think what the questioner is referring to is the constant total on the news each night.  I think we all know war stinks and people dying stinks and we probably all respect the fallen soldiers and their families.  The thing that gets tiresome is the constant reporting of the negative news from the war designed to inflame the "peace-at-all-costs" people by saying "I told you so" and the lack of reporting on the positive effects our servicemen are having in Iraq.\n\nWhile we DO count those that die in DUI's, it's not front-page news.

Again, as in Vietnam, the US has betrayed its self with this unjustitied and criminal invasion/occupation.   The resistance to foreign forces is only going to strengthen over time and what is the US going to do about it.  With waining support its only a matter to time before Iraq solves this problem its own way.  \n\nWhat is driving this war here is an unwillingness to face realities on the part of our leadership.  As in Vietnam, its the American people who will put a stop to our mission in Iraq.  We are not at that point yet.  I can't guess when it will happen, but at some point our leadership will be compelled to start withdrawing forces.

America and our western allies DO NOT HAVE the support or TRUST of the people of Iraq! Our soliders will continue to be killed because we cannot win the hearts, minds, and faith of the people of Iraq. \n\nThe people of Iraq continue to suffer due to our occupation there. Our soliders have killed ( a kill is in the line of duty) and murdered (an unjust taking of a life) hundreds of thier people. Terrorist have done the same. The people of Iraq DO NOT SEE a difference between the Insurgents and our soliders...our being there has caused the death and suffering of many innocent people over there. Without the TRUE support of the people of Iraq America will not win.\n\nIf we kill one "Big Daddy" another one will take his place...this is a fact...Bush and the idiots on "the Hill" don't know sh*#!

What does it matter if it was 10 or 6000000...The fact is the war is based on a lie...perhaps its true most of the killing is Muslim against Muslim but we put put the fuel on the fire because we were told by experts that this is exactly what was going to happen! We did not listen and some of us are still not !\nWhen will it stop?..When the American people take to the streets and say no more killing in our name!!\n\nI also hope that some Americans stop harassment of our foreign\nvisitors when they have a grammar or spelling mistake....There is often more courage in their questions than our Answers!

the dumb ass american government saw that iraq had a lot of oil and got jealous. so they made up a long story and said they had to protect the iraqi civilians. now they're just killing them (if you wanna call that protect them)\nUS wanted oil, that's the reason. and as for weapons of mass destruction. aparently sadam had some. let him have them, the US has them too. and it´s none of the US' business if they have them in iraq, it´s their land, let them do what they please

Absolutly not. And futhermore, increasing the omnipotent powers of the U.S through arms loans is not worth it either. Human lives are not worth it. Speaking of which, the lastest count on the number killed in the war in Iraq is horrible. But that number is infanitly smaller than the number of unreported deaths of Iraqi CIVILIANS. The U.S went to war to fight terrorism. This is hypocritical because the U.S supports and trains terrorists. Its used to be called the School of Americas and is now called Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation and its located in Fort Benning, Georgia. The school actually distributes manuals and textbooks on torture and violence. SOA has trained over 60,000 Latin American soldiers in counterinsurgency techniques, sniper training, commando and psychological warfare, military intelligence and interrogation tactics. These graduates have consistently used their skills to wage a war against their own people including the majority of the dictators of South America including Pinochet. Hundreds of thousands of Latin Americans have been tortured, raped, assassinated, “disappeared,” massacred, and forced into refugee by those trained at the School of Assassins.

The Iraqi government will have to do that if they want it.  The US government can't keep forcing themselves on countries that don't want them there.

The kidnappings and mass murders are being done by the insurgents. Only a relatively small percentage of Iraqis were killed by Americans. Almost all Iraqis were killed by foreign insurgents and by other Iraqis.\n\nThey kill each other there every day, and our troops get killed by getting between them.

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.

THE IDEA IS TO KEEP THEM OUT OF THE HANDS OF COUNTRIES THAT ARE UNSTABLE.SOME COUNTRIES CHANGE LEADERSHIP FOUR X IN A TWO YEAR PERIOD.IF IRAQ HAS THEM WHO CONTROLS THEM ? SUNNIS KURDS. IT HAS TO STOP OR WE'LL BE IN W.W.III IN A HEARTBEAT.
