Damn. At least under Saddam there was some semblance of order in Iraq, now the place looks like Denver after the Superbowl. People cant prove that they have money in the bank, thousands of dollars in propery stolen or destroyed, curre3ncy burning - and the US troops do nothing. Heh, I notice we've managed to keep the oil wells safe in all of this.

your about a day or two (maybe more) behind, the troops have cracked down on the looting and stoped two (i think its two) bank thiefs.

So oppression is better then a Little disorder?

i dont think they put that much thought into their looting. its pretty much just random chaos.

i don't know if it's chaos. I'm not there, and i havent heard any news saying its chaos, but it is very possible people want things they think they have been deprived of the past 20 or so years. Also with no current government there who's to stop them.

well supposedly the US troops are keeping order. thats not happening tho.

and im pretty sure Saddam didnt keep people from... buying food. cuz thats getting stolen a lot.

and that horrible person must have deprived of them of robbing banks and burning money too. cuz thats goin on as well.

Have some patience. Things will settle down soon. You people were complaining "Have we won the war yet? Have we won the war yet?" for the twenty-some days of the war. Now you show no patience for us to win the peace. These things take time. Just wait.

Yeah really emoboy. Its not a fricken easy bake oven, these things take time. How long did WWII take? 6 years. And this war was supposedly supposed to be WWIII according to various liberals. So 6 years.... 2 months, seems pretty fast to me. I know you liberals want it your way and your way now, but things take time, have a little patience (self control wouldnt hurt either)

Look at you, you bring up every point you can to make the troops look bad, ignoring the good, cause you think the troops can do no right.
