Why we are not ready to leave Iraq

So sad, but so true.

c'mon... you guys gotta at least wonder... at a US army boot camp, first couple of days straight off the bus from home... do our N00Bs look much better? Synchronization takes practice people.

Why yes, Raven, our noobs do look better on their first days at boot camp. Synchronization wasn't the Iraqis' only problem - simply performing a correct jumping jack seemed to be the most pressing issue. Our boys can at least do that much when they're fresh from the farms.

Just my guess: Could it be that while in "western" countries even little kids do the jumping jack that maybe but just maybe those guys have never ever did that? Maybe that's their first time trying? Anyone ever thought about that?

I wonder what the oh-so physical competent farmer ...erm soldier boys would look like if they should perform a correct buddhist Lotus position for the first time.

Be open minded!

Umm....pretty sure assuming the Lotus position isn't exactly the most difficult of physical activities ever. Not that I disagree with you about your point. Anyhow, your argument is actually in line with the point of this sift - if this is in fact their first times trying a jumping jack....guess how much longer they actually need to be trained?

Maybe this is a communication/coordination issue? Though, hell, it ALMOST looks like they're having fun. Maybe the instructions were to do jumping jacks, but to do so creatively and with their own personal sense of style.
