Rampant looting continues in Iraq and some Iraqi's want the U-S to do something about it.
U-S officials say they do plan to do more to restore law and order in the country.
In fact, some soldiers could soon become security forces.
But some Iraqi's fear it will take at least a year or two for the country to be operational again.
Meanwhile, the hunt for Saddam Hussein continues as the military prepares to take control of his hometown.
Drew Levinson has the latest from Kuwait.

The U-S military still has many unfinished missions in Iraq.
Forces are still trying to take control of Saddam Hussein's hometown and seal off Iraq's border with Syria to prevent regime members from escaping.
But some Iraqi's are also calling on the U-S to also stop the rampant looting in the country.
Pentagon officials say they are concerned that the looting and destruction of government offices could destroy any evidence of weapons of mass destruction.
And they say U-S forces are taking greater steps to prevent the looting.
