I am basing my opinion on many sources I've heard/read discussing what they've seen in their travels to Iraq. Today I heard an author from newsweek discuss what he hears from iraqi's he now calls friends. They are very afraid of the atmosphere there now.

And he see's no end in site as do many of his friends. They are looking to leave. Which will further hurt the country as those most knowledgeable and able to help lead in the country leave.

I heard some of the most disgusting, fear inducing comments today from Fox News clips. If that's your source of info, no wonder I feel your world view is extremely shaded.

>In a country of 25 million there are 25 million opinions. Is it impossible for you to see any successes or is it already over in your mind? I can see the negatives and positives and acknowledge that we don't know what the outcome is going to be, and probably won't for another decade.
