I wonder if this is intentional to keep Iraq in a broken condition. The Israel
do that to
the Palestinians: everything is shattered which keeps them struggling to merely
survive so
they don't grow their economy and become a threat to Israel. Israeli military
experts gave
the US a great deal of advice during the invasion and they're a secret part of
the
occupation.
I read a few days ago that the new Iraqi army is hopeless. The recruits get
only about a
week of training. Even then, they are useless. Recently, an entire battalion
deserted.
Lack of water, lack of electricity, lack of telephones, lack of fuel, lack of
security, lack
of decision-making... just exactly how is Iraq going to become a state again?
