Its also risky opening business to support families because of the instability...so people can't make a living or pay for needed medicine.
Sad, really..I just fail to see the positivity of any war.

Not to sound insensative, but wasn't this happening even before the war?
Was it before or after the war that people had to worry about ending up in mass graves if the country's leader felt that it should be so?
Was it before or after the war that the police cut people's hands off and branded x's on their foreheads because of false charges?
Iraq isn't going to look as law-abiding as the US overnight. Of course, I'm not sure that it really is. Women get raped left and right here too according to crime statistics.
