Kids need a journal for school from someone in the military in Iraq. This would be good for the hole family to get involved to e-mail someone there. Does anyone have info to go about this. Please let me know.

How long are breaks between deployment tours to iraq?

Thursday, November 3rd, 2011
Mario C asked:


My unit returned from Iraq last year in September. How long is it until they can be deployed again? Is their some sort of wait period after a tour where a unit can not be called back to duty? For example, they come back for a tour and cant be deployed for another year…or can they still be deployed even months after they’ve returned?

How many kills does an ordinary soldier in Iraq get per year?

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011
A.M. asked:


I guess it would vary depending on circumstances, but does anyone know the median amount of kills a soldier gets in Iraq per year? Do you have any reasonable estimates?
Just curious.

Erudite. 20 Jan 09. History! asked:


BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) — A triple bomb attack in a northeast Baghdad neighborhood killed 28 people and wounded 68 others on Monday, Iraq’s Interior Ministry said.

It was the deadliest attack in the capital city in almost five months. The United States Marines stated they wanted to stay in the back ground.

Should the US military and government figures responsible for attacking Iraq be charged?

Wednesday, October 26th, 2011
Hidup asked:


As the vultures in the oil companies move today to steal the oil of Iraq should the leaders of the military and government who led the terror attack on Iraq be tried for their crimes? After all it is armed robbery isn’t it?

bluemoon asked:


I have been in Iraq and know how it feels. I wish to marry a disabled Iraq veteran. Where can I find someone like that? I am looking for a life-long marriage, not something for now.

Thanks a lot!

Why are top military officers now starting to be against the Iraq war?

Thursday, October 20th, 2011
Erudite asked:


WASHINGTON — Four and a half years after the nation’s top military leaders saluted and fell in behind President Bush ’s pre-emptive invasion of Iraq , their replacements are beginning to question the mission and sound alarms about the toll the war is taking on the Army and the Marine Corps. All military people are starting to second guess President Bush. 70% of Americans are now against the Iraq war.
Is this the end of the Iraq war?

What is one military strategy that would allow the US to win the war in Iraq?

Thursday, October 20th, 2011
DBrain asked:


Aside from what the politicians think, and how they think they can win the war in Iraq, how do YOU think this war can be won? Here is your chance to tell the world (even the President) how this war can be won. Obviously, you must take into account our current state of affairs, including all the lives that have already been lost and the potential for more lives to be lost. This question is for a military solution alone. I will post a separate question for a political solution, if there could be one.
