In the opinion of 65.9 percent of those surveyed said the anarchy sweeping Iraq will be after the completion of the full U.S. military withdrawal. They expected that the Arab spring extends to Iraq after the U.S. withdrawal, but warned it could lead to chaos tearing Iraq and down to the division.
While 25.9 per cent expect a stable security in Iraq after the completion of the full U.S. military withdrawal. In their view that the modern Iraqi state will begin to build anew under the multiparty system and freedom of opinion and expression. The 8.2 per cent felt that the U.S. withdrawal at this time does not serve Iraq or atone for the mistakes of America against Arabs as a whole and not invited to stay to mean support for the occupation.
and found the center to the conclusion: the implementation of the agreement between the Iraqi authorities and the U.S. administration has embarked on the U.S. forces withdraw from Iraq that the job is done before the end of 2011. The U.S. administration aims to keep about 50 thousand troops in Iraq to form a forward base in the Gulf, but most of the Iraqi forces refused this offer which prompted the Americans to go into the bazaar to the extent it is accepted that is the survival of about 5 thousand soldiers as trainers and experts, but without giving them the Iraqi authorities of any immunities of diplomacy. In contrast, Americans were able to sign by the complete withdrawal of the oil contracts large and investment guarantees billions of dollars for the provision of military assistance and logistical support to Iraqi forces.
Although it has become for Americans interests of the investment large in Iraq, but that there is fear that the advantage of Washington's withdrawal of its forces and work to sow discord and divisions among the Iraqis, whether on the basis of a sectarian or ethnically-based, which means that Iraq becomes a project capable of division.
Moreover, despite attempts by some Iraqi officials to neutralize their outside the circle of interactions of regional and international but there are the land of Iraq conflict exposed between Iran and America, as there are conflicts with regional dimensions related to what is happening for example in Syria.
from here remains the question on the table on the future of Iraq and its security, stability and unity of its land and its people.
