Is one of the reasons why the government is pulling the army out of Iraq is to deal with civil issues?

As the recession hits & the fragmented population of the UK split. Is the Army needed back in the UK to help with the looming civil unrest?

I doubt it...

IT seems as if that we are pulling out not because of any good reason and just because the "instant gratification culture" of today has lost interest in actually giving the people the resources they need (and have needed all along) to get the fu(king job done and be able to leave the place in BETTER shape then when we came in.

We are ONLY still there because we never had the resources we needed in the first place to be able to go in, do our thing, and get out again and only leave support personnel there.

People that refuse to research history don't understand that there was no way on earth we could go in with a halfassed plan and no resources and be able to get sh*t done.

This quagmire has happened because of the people going on TV and saying "We have Lost" before he ever had a chance to do ANY good...
