People living in Iraq have said they have not been able to shop since the US govt started a war that has completely disrupted security - that's more than 3 years they have been unable to go shopping due the rampant violence and disorder. Of course, Millions of Iraqis shop every day. Next!

Amy, re:Actually, you're wrong. People living in Iraq have said they have not been able to shop since the US govt started a war that has completely disrupted security - that's more than 3 years they have been unable to go shopping due the rampant violence and disorder. Of course, you won't read about this in the newspapers Just watch any downtown TV coverage from Iraq, the journalists are wearing six layers of protection and the Iraqis are just sitting around in the background looking at them like they're a bit overdressed. There's no denying that it can be dangerous, but millions in Iraq lead a "normal" life everyday.
