The other day a suicide bomber detonated an explosive vest inside the Iraqi Parliament, killing 8 people, including 3 lawmakers. Read about it here. The parliament is inside the Green Zone, which is the most heavily guarded area in the entire country. If we can't make it safe there for these politicians to try to get their government going then we can't do anything constructive in Iraq. It's really as simple as that.
