Iraq: To Withdraw or Not to Withdraw?

By Laura Knoy on Tuesday, July 7, 2009.

The joint U.S.-Iraq Security Agreement states that US combat troops would leave Iraq's cities and towns by the end of June, that all combat troops would leave the country by August 2010 and all forces would be gone by the end of 2011. But some say Iraqis aren't ready for a withdrawal of troops. We talk with Granite State analysts about moving our troops out of Iraq and the consequences of staying or leaving.
