Obama's Troop Pullout From Iraq

The Story

On August 2010 obama plans to withdraw from Iraq most all troops. But he plans to leave tens of thousands of troops in to protect and advise Iraqi forces and U.S. interests. Around 30 to 40 thousand troops will remain  in iraq. Over the course of 18 months he will pull out around 100,000 troops. By 2011 he will withdraw all American forces for Iraq which as an agreement made with U.S. and Iraq when Bush was in office. 

My Thoughts

I beileve that it is a good thing to withdraw slowly from Iraq because we need to finish what we started and it would be a poor desicsion and an unfair one to Iraq to just leave in the middle of a project.  I believe that Iraq currently needs American support to uphold and complete our goals of making Iraq a free nation. I believe that they also need guidance in how to properly run a "democracy" successfuly and just leaving would cause more problems than before considering Iraq has been under a dictatorship for quite some time. I Beleive that Obama's goal for withdrawing is a well thought idea on withdrawing from Iraq and will show promising results.
