Muslims in world are near 80% sunni and near 20% shia. researchers have counted up to 260 sect for Islam that they all belong to categories Sunni and shia. the main category of Shia is 12 Imami shia and other sects of shia are nearly extincted.

there is at least 300,000,000 shia Muslims in world, but there is no clear stat. shias always have been controlled and killed during history and so usually they hide their beliefs. all 12 Imams of shia have been killed or spent their life in prison by Omayyads and Abbasids.

ALL of US military branches are currently seving some part in Iraq.

Everything was peaceful in Iraq people living normal lives. No terrorism, no weapons. In America everything was fine too. The only war we were fighting was Afghanistan (2001). Then, America came in and attacked Iraq.

There is little justification and the UK is beginning to bring their men back home. Many U.S. citizens want the same thing. No weapons of mass destruction have been found and gee, we haven't heard about Bin Laden in a very long time. No more video tapes of his so-called speeches. It makes one wonder what it's all about ... oil and power!

There are too many to name, but here are a few: Documented human rights violations 1979-2003 * Approved executions, acts of torture and rape. * Public beheadings of women who were accuse of prostitution and took place in front of family members including children. The heads of the women were publicly displayed near signs reading 'For the honor of Iraq.' 130 women were reportedly killed in this manner, but the estimation is probably higher. * Children (reported as young as 5) were subjected to military training which included cruelty to animals. If the parents objected they were executed and the children imprisoned. * The Iraq citizens were restricted from voting and 8% of members of Arab Ba' ath Party could vote leaving the citizens unable to vote in another government. * The Iraq citizens were not allowed to assemble unless it was to express support for their government. The Iraqi government controlled the establishment of political parties regulated by internal affairs which monitored their activities. * Check points prevented citizens from traveling abroad without government permission (expensive). They had to post collateral and Iraqi women could not travel without a male companion. * Halabja poison gas attack occurred March 15 - 19, 1988 and Hussein began his extermination against the Kurdish people living in Northern Iraq. There were at least 50,000 - 100,000 people killed, many were women and children. * Experimentation's of different gases on civilians. * Mass executions on the Kurdish and disappearances of thousands of civilians. * Experimentation of chemical weapons including mustard gas, Sarin, nerve agents that killed thousands. * Imprisonment of thousands of women, children and the elderly under extreme deprivation. * Citizens were forced from their villages, homes and land along with schools, mosques, farms and power stations. * Hussein massacred Kurdish north and the Shiasouth and the deaths were estimated from a range of 2,000 - 100,000 Kurds and 60,000 to 130,00 for shi ites. * Death penalties were handed down for theft, corruption, currency speculation and military desertion. The more fortunate had amputations or branding. * CNN revealed eventually that Iraq torturing journalists and Iraqi citizens in 1990s. * In the 2003 invasion of Iraq mass graves were found with several thousand bodies and more are being uncovered to this day.; It was believed that most of the dead died in the 1991 uprising against Saddam Hussein. * In the 2003 invasion of Iraq many torture center were found in security office and police stations such as hooks for hanging people by their hands for beatings, electric shock, etc. * In some reports torture was used to improve the performance of the Iraqi soccer team, but there are no correct records on this.

That's pretty close to the latest figures we can find: 34% Sunni, 62% Shi'i .

Our numbers date from 2000, and we must admit that the balance may well have

shifted during the turmoil in the country since then.

it's in Iraq.

Insurgents are people uprising against their own government. "Terrorism" are tactics used by insurgents (since they don't have an Air Force, Navy, Army, nor Marine Corps; they must use what ever weapon they can get their hands on). Iraq & Afghanistan are no different than Germans, Japanese, Canadians, British, Russians, Mexicans, Cubans, Australians, or any other member of the human race.

If humans living in those above listed countries (which is only a small sample of humans living on this planet) can HANDLE their own problems...Irag & Afghanistan must be very unique people if they cannot handle theirs.

Most civilized countries have a police department, sheriff department, highway patrol, park rangers, forest rangers, border patrolman, customs officers, immigration officers, coast guardsmen, soldiers, sailors, marines, air force personnel, FBI, CIA, DEA, NCIS, LAPD, NYPD, DOJ, BOP, DOD, Texas Rangers, National Guardsmen, and Home Land Security. Now that was JUST NAMING AGENCIES IN AMERICA! Imagine what Iraq and Afghanistan could do to EMPLOY PEOPLE!

There was little support in the UK for the war in Iraq. Thousands protested nationwide and marched into London to illustrate their strength of feelings against the planned invasion of Iraq. Some statistics show that public support is reported to have increased after Prime Minister Tony Blair stated that Iraq has to be invaded as Saddam Hussein was in possession of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) which could be released within forty five minutes and was refusing to surrender them. However these weapons were never discovered and in 2005 a government report was issued to confirm that no WMD had been found.

If the U.S. had never caught Saddam Hussein, it is likely that he would have continued to exert influence in the region, potentially leading to ongoing instability in Iraq and the broader Middle East. His absence from capture might have fueled persistent insurgency against U.S. forces, complicating post-war reconstruction efforts. Additionally, his survival could have revived his regime's loyalists, possibly resulting in a more fragmented Iraq and prolonged conflict. Ultimately, the dynamics of U.S. foreign policy and regional relationships could have shifted significantly.
