One year after the United States led the invasion of Iraq, the country remains extremely dangerous not only to our troops, but also to the stability of the world.

War is the province of danger.

In fact, things are moving along rather well in Iraq. Nothing is perfect, of course, and freedom is messy work. The cooperation of the three major interests in Iraq has been remarkable.

Iraq is in a civil war. There is no road in that country that is safe.

Iraq is a manufactured conflict for the sake of geopolitical dominance in the area.

I think in national security, the war in Iraq is troublesome and a difficult challenge, but our troops and the military leaders we have are managing that situation, although it continues to be very risky and very dangerous.

All together, we know for many years that terror is the most dangerous thing for local, regional and international stability.

Nevertheless, I do know that we are part of a danger zone, we have military operations in Afghanistan and we're training the Iraqi police force. The terrorists also have us in their sights.

The nuclear deal with Iran's radical clerics and their military junta is the most dangerous and potentially deadly action that the Obama administration has yet taken.

War zones are dangerous, protests can be violent, also, natural disasters are difficult to cover, so there are going to be risks.
