I don't see it as a valid comparison. How many police forces have attack helicopters? Artillery? Nuclear Weapons? How many police forces face constant fire from automatic weapons, rockets mines and booby traps?

If you think that Sadr city in 2007 was a job for a police force then fine but I don't see how any police force in the world could have handled it.
