How do we know if we are winning the war in Iraq or not?

October 16th, 2011
Socrates asked:


Yes the US military has killed thousands of terrorists/insurgents in Iraq but they’ve indirectly killed thousands (collateral damage) as well. Beside the major Al Qaeda leaders in Iraq, we have no idea how many terrorists our troops have killded so how do we know if we’re winning or losing?

Are American troops in Iraq still protecting their homecountry?

October 16th, 2011
Mr Innocent asked:


I can still hear Americans claim that their troops in Iraq are still protecting America, which sounds odd in my ears. Isn’t the war in Iraq already won by the Americans?

Has unprovoked war with the sovereign state of Iraq undermined the opposition to Russia’s attack of Georgia?

October 15th, 2011
Carl Marks asked:


And, in effect, cause a situation where the Cold War will now resume? So, in effect, did the USA let its guard down and ignore the real threat it faces, as an expense for the pursuit of war against Iraq?

How long do each branch actually stay in iraq?

October 13th, 2011
mrlillulu asked:


My recruiter told me 6 months for Marines; army goes for at least a year or more. Also said that the Air force usually stay in iraq, leaves, and go back, leaves, comeback and so on. Also said that the Navy stays there for a while since they’re stuck in a ship. Sounds like bull crap?

How come liberals are against the war in Iraq, but support the war in Libya?

October 11th, 2011
darkrider12g asked:


Seems hypocritical to me. Is it because of who currently runs the White House? And, don’t try to tell me Iraq was about oil and this one isn’t.

What kind of cell phone would work in Iraq due to deployment?

October 10th, 2011
Giovanna asked:


I hear that quadband phones should work. I have a quadband phone from AT&T. I am aware that prices will be higher, though. If I get an international roaming plan with that phone should that work out? Or could I atleast use a sim-card from Iraq? Please respond with helpful information.

What If Iraq Insurgency Grows After United States Leaves?

October 7th, 2011
KrazyGuy asked:


We are gonna pull out of Iraq at the end of this year. What if Iraq falls back into chaos when we completely pull out? The Shiite majority takes over Iraq and starts killing the Sunni minority. Sunnis and Shiites start killing each other again. More bombings, kidnappings, beheadings, and more IEDs. There will not be any US troops inside of Iraq. If the country starts to fall apart are we gonna go back in and fight again?
