I am in Iraq, and it's pointless being here. Get me the hell out of this country! They attack eachother, yeat leave us alone on our dismounted patrols. There are so many more reasons to leave... How about so we will not lose another brother, spouse, son, daughter, sister to an IED attack in a place where they dont want to be for a cause that ended when Suddam was killed. We need to withdraw and let the Iraqis sort out the rest. They are capable of defending themselves, after all, almost all our allies pulled out to avoid further loss of life. If there's any way to get me out of this country, let me know. I want out!!!
