With the Memorial holiday weekend coming up I have some questions;

Why are we still in Iraq? And why are we still sending troops in there?

I feel this is a fitting question for this memorial holiday, plus My bro kinda more like one of my kids returned back from Iraq safe and was stationed in Hawaii for a while with his wife and kids and just left here yesterday to serve another year in Iraq. Herb shakes head in disbelief this is still going on.

I see we still can't upload photos from our computers here, Herb shakes head it disbelief again. How can I post a photo of my bro serving his country without uploading it from my computer?

Iraq is still a problem because there needs to be a clear exit strategy. The way the war was initiated, it now becomes very difficult to exit without leaving a civil war behind and worst problems for the future.

A sound exit strategy, which includes training the local security forces, keeping a strong and representative government body will help to secure that future. The troops will slowly exit, as they leave behind local counterparts - the local military and security forces. Hopefully those will have better luck controlling threats that foreign forces did.

As for your brother's picture, just upload it to http://www.flickr.com/ its a great site and you'll be able to share your family hero with other families online.

I had the same trouble with my photos, until I leaned to upload them to Picasa so that I could send them here from there. It would be nice to upload directly.
Sorry to hear about your brother.
I guess that some troops are being rotated over so that others can come home and catch a break. The President is suppose to remove almost all of the troops by the end of 2010, but about 30,000 will remain to "train" Iraqi soldiers.
