I'd say pacifying Iraq is a mission impossible, especially when you hear reports of 190.000 weapons gone missing. I'm talking assaultrifles, pistols, and large numbers of bulletproof vests and helmets, and nobody seems to know where they went and who has them now. I bet i know who does though.
Also, spending bilions of dollars on boosting Saudi Arabia's and Egypt's military is not making things any easier in the future. Everyone who believes Saudi Arabia and Egypt are US allies should have his head examined. The only friends the US has in that region are the royal Saudi family, the rest of the country simply hates them, and Egypt has a double agenda, they too are far from trustworthy allies, the country is rapidly turning into terrorist breeding grounds. If you financially support nations like that, you might just as well shoot a bullet through your own foot, both situations will cripple you eventually.
