Just post common sense stuff try to be serious for once...

1. They are on foreign soil, foreign climate, conditions, etc.
2. They can't kill civilians, and the world is watching for injustices.
3. Their mission is unclear (fighting for freedom?)
4. Suicide attackers
5. Coalition forces are outnumbered
6. Coalition is fighting multiple invisible enemies.
7. Coalition has more to lose in terms of quality of life, pampering...
8. Coalition bogged down by supplies and protective chemical gear?
9. Coalition can't destroy the city or the infrastructure.

Maybe you guys can elaborate on all this -- it just seems to me that on foreign soil, something *could* go terribly wrong... Think about how many years IRAQ has had to prepare for this war strategically -- and for a man as shrewd as Saddam with nothing to lose, I can only imagine a worst possible scenario... mass carnage.
