Do any of you think you would one day want to return to Iraq or Afghanistan?

Absolutely not. I cannot imagine going back to Afghanistan for any reason other than business. I took hundreds of pictures if I ever feel like I am missing the scenery.

Yes I’ll be going back in a few months

To be very truthful and fair I wouldn't go to either Iraq or A-Stan no matter how well the places cleaned up. While I saw some really nice terrain and met some good folks my memory is of the smell of crap a decay everywhere. In all honesty I can't see any sane person visiting as a tourist unless you want to disappear into a shallow grave out in the desert. While I am sure there are many good people in these places the number of folks who would kill you just form being you outnumbers them. I would feel safer walking down a street in Chicago in the summer than walking in the mountains in A-Stan.
