People ride the Ferris wheel at Zawraa Park on Dec. 2, 2011 in Baghdad, Iraq. The 180-foot tall Ferris wheel opened earlier this year and is the second largest in the Middle East. Iraq is transitioning as the U.S. military continues its withdrawal from the country, planning to be completed by the end of December, following the war that began in 2003.

And just how many of these people realize that without the sacrifices of American troops they would not be in a position to have the freedom to enjoy this park. Let's hope that once we leave, the radicals don't step in and take away the freedom we have spilled American blood and treasure for. God Bless our troops and the USA!
