2. More attacks seem to be coming up north

It seems the old "Sunni Triangle" is getting wider.

5. Again I have to ask how many more?

I keep hearing Dylan singing how many deaths will it take? 345 american dead now, how long before we hit 500? The rate is increasing, instead of one soldier per day, now we hear of multiple dead in multiple attacks. A change in strategy as well used to be bomb and run, now they bomb and stick around to shoot as well.
Tomorrow the focus group gathers again, hopefully the voices will be heard this time, but this has to happen much more frequently, the protests I mean, for our whimper to get loud enough. We have to rid ourselves of these incompetents before the world lies in ashes.
