I knew that Iraq would fall apart once U.S. forces left the region in 2011. With Fallujah falling there have been calls for the U.S. to help in that region. Secretary of State John Kerry promised Sunday that he would support Iraq but as of right now no U.S. are promised to go into that region.
Iraq is a very troubled area where the Shiite, Sunnis, and the Kurds are embattled with one another in that region. Iraq has been nothing but civil war and chaos since Sadamm Hussein was topped in 2003. The U.S. forces were in Iraq for nearly nine years with a no-win strategy. Americans have lost a lot of blood and treasure supposedly trying to make "peace" in that country. There's the Al-Qaeda stronghold in the Sunni regions. The last thing the U.S. needs to do is to get involved in that region. That's my opinion. To read the story, click on the above link from the Christian Science Monitor.
