Default Massive prison break in Iraq

Nothing but bad news coming out of Iraq lately (don't want to turn this into a political rant over Iraq war either-start a different thread if you want to go there)

Bombing after bombing has been going on, over 3,000 killed this year so far. I keep thinking of just how incompetant the Iraqi police and military are in stopping this. Imagine this going on in a country in the West, most would respond with a massive influx of security forces, but Iraq doesn't seem to be able to do anything about it.

Now, the militants have broken into a prison and have let 100's of militants, not just 10 or 20, but hundreds of them including members of AQ, to escape.

Feel sorry for the average Iraqi, who have to try and get through a day without being blown up!
