I've never quite understood exactly what purpose is being served by our presence there.

The Government is consolidating it's power base in the middle east as per the directives set forth by the Bildeberg Group in the interest of surrounding, and then moving on Iran and other countries in the area. The primary goal is global domination with a one world government and an enslaved populace. Once they have control over the middle east, they will finalize the Middle Eastern Union and create a single currency for that region. They have already done this with the creation of the European Union. The North American Union is nearing finalization. They are working towards the Asian Union (I am certain you have noticed China in the news alot more lately...hmmm, I wonder why?). Once all of the regional unions are in place, they will begin the process of tying them all together as a global union with a single government and one world currency. We will all be enslaved by this.... and once they have completed the NWO, they will begin the process of depopulating the Earth (mass genocide) in the interest of leaving behind a smaller, easily controlled and enslaved population.

Haven't been paying attention to reality in the past five years, have we? We have fighting and dying to help stabilize Iraq so they can enjoy the peaceful process of civilization. Because of the American presence, little girls in Iraq can go to school and learn to be equals with their male counterparts.
The Iraqi people no longer have to worry about being pulled of the street and thrown into a rock crusher for saying the wrong thing in public. Of course, you wouldn't understand any of this because you got your freedoms free of charge, you don't know the brave young airman, marine, sailor or soldier who died to make you free!
Happy Veterans Day!!!

.Besides building infrastructure, it's a matter of patrolling and training. The U.S. is running out of military targets to hit. Recently, the big battles have been Iraqi forces vs the insurgency. It took nine years to rebuild Japan and Germany and lots more Americans were involved in that.

We went there to oust Saddam. We did that and we won but then their whole world was sent into chaos when the insurgents started murdering the innocent Iraqis trying to take over where Saddam left off. We are now there to keep the Iraqis as safe as possible while training their police and army to fight the insurgents when we finally leave.

There was a hobo/crazy guy who claimed that Iraq had vans that could spray poisonous gas at people or something like that.
so then the US went in to help their unstable government and see if they really had weapons of mass destruction
