The Brains of IRAQ, why soldiers are reenlisting by the masses and why we are winning this war!

Right now I am sitting at a combat out post in a city in Iraq....I am listening to the IP (Iraqi Police) threatening to quit their jobs of keeping this city in order if a street in front of their and our outpost is opened. The reason the street is closed: The street in question is named market street. In most cities in Iraq the markets are one of the most dangerous places as many people gather and its easy to target Americans and Iraqis while hiding amongst the crowds.... A portion of the street has been closed off to protect the American(so I thought) and Iraqi forces working out of a building that runs along the street. It has been closed off to deter and prevent a VBIED(Vehicle Born Improvised Explosive Device) from going off in front of the building and preventing mass Casualties and deaths both to the Iraqi Police and American Soldiers....VBIEDS are generally a large explosion from a vehicle, often dump truck, filled with explosives that cause buildings to fall and have extensive collateral damage...The street is not interfering with everyday life for these Iraqis in a damaging way and definitely not in a way to compromise an entire U.S. infantry companies security/safety as well as the company of Iraqi police that we share the residence with...The market is still open and there is still several routes for the civilians of Iraq to get there and get their needed items/food etc.... They have been doing this for already a half year or more. The reason for the street to reopen is coming down from people that are "tactically educated and brilliant." My hero's...our commanders....(Brigade full bird Col., battalion LTC, as well as company commanders.) The city council of this city has been requesting to have this street reopened for some time now....So now at the convenience of the Iraqi populous and at the negligence of their own troops safety they are kindly obliging to the needs and wants of the Iraqis....Let me stress opening this street DOESN'T improve the quality of life in anyway for the Iraqis and possibly will reduce ours drastically....Now the IPs are threatening to quit if and when this does happen and well rightly so, cant blame them....Unfortunately us as soldiers don't get that option but instead will stand fast and upright under the great leaders we have....I don't know, you put two and two together and see what you think....I could sight many more examples of B.S. stress put on the soldiers from the upper command. Honestly we arn't losing this battle and the retention of Good soldiers because this is a right or wrong war....We are losing because of how its being dealt with and run...So mom If I don't make it home because of this or any of my soldiers well....hooah. I love you
