All I know is of the several friends that have been in the military that Iraq is basically a FFA rape and murder zone for US soldiers. They got out ASAP.

Your friends are probably full of shit. I personally have spent a considerable amount of time in some of the worst parts of Iraq, and even then, it wasn't FFA. Sure, you can take some creative liberties with the RoI - but some people who have you believe that the entire country is like a modern day Mai Lai.
My experience has been that 99% of people who come home and tell war stories are full of shit and telling fairy tales - because most people that do have real war stories don't want to or feel the need to talk about it with friends/family/random people who weren't there and thus wouldn't understand it in a way that would make it worth talking about.
