#1 Yep, killed the Iraq deployment too. Notice the prosperity in Germany, Japan, and South Korea that signed such an agreement (SOFA - Status of Forces Agreement).

#4 I dunno about Iraq. I wonder if some of the kabooms are being over-played. It's a country over 30 million people and AQIM certainly isn't operating in the Shi'a and Kurdish areas. I don't think Iraq will fall apart, but it might still become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Iran...
