The reality of what is happening in Iraq is not what's being touted so favorably by Washington.
I was talking to a guy in a coffee shop whose son is over there and he said he heard its a total fragile scene with the insurgents completely in control of many areas that our guys stay out of. I think its going to erupt into a violent civil war soon.
The main problem is we don't have enough troops to police an entire country.
For example it takes over 50,000 police officers just to maintain law and order in New York City. So how can anyone expect to police an entire country with just 3 to 4 times that size force like we have in Iraq now. Its physically and logistically an impossible task to succeed in.
