Many of you forget to many of the Iraqis believe the Americans are there as occupiers, not liberators and this of course would mean resistance. Also the resistance are gaining lots of media coverage which is good for them and bad for the coalition. Its not who has the strong army, its the willingness to fight. A lesson learnt from Vietnam.
And Who said it will ever be easy to rebuild a new Iraq? Invading Iraq was easy but building a new regime will be hard as already seen. Easy come easy go.
Time will tell, I think it'll be best to hand over all authority back to the Iraqis as soon as possible to give the right impression because everyone is thinking the US is there to control the Oil and that will just make the Iraqis fight harder.
