for the army and marines who suffered 4500 of the dead and more than 30 thousand of the wounded, most of them disabled, the longer second war in U.S. history has ended, and today Americans back to their country.
We have completed the task, but after more than eight years it has been accomplished already? More than half of Americans say the war were not worth it. Al Qaeda is continuing the implementation of the attacks, and Iranian-backed militias still operating as well as some of the dilemmas between the KRG and the Baghdad government, Iraqis are concerned about the return of sectarian bloodshed after the departure of U.S. forces.
not all Americans will return to their country, which will leave approximately sixteen thousand fighters in the castle huge which will include the Embassy of the United States, and in the heavily fortified consulate in Basra, Erbil, and Kirkuk. These four sites will be self-sufficient and will be where people are far from what it called Wall Street's perilous security situation in the streets of Baghdad. At each site diplomat, there will be a large number of security contractors Alahliyn provide protection and safe movement of diplomats.
For his part, warned U.S. Ambassador James Jeffrey, the risks that await American diplomats who risked out of the complexes. And had reported that the BBC this week that two convoys of ten wheels loaded with security forces from Blackwater was accompanied by American teachers to a meeting at a hotel in Baghdad. What we have achieved the victory that if the Americans in Iraq fear for their lives, eight years after the overthrow of Saddam and install a democratic government? Can we win the "hearts and minds" of the Iraqi people, who burn the American flag in celebration of Fallujah Brahilna? Why not conducted marches celebration pays tribute to the Iraqis who Balamirkan Hrrōhm from the tyranny of Saddam? What we have achieved if they hate America, spread to the extent that our diplomats are living in constant danger?
says Fred Coogan of the new Republicans who believe that things will go well after the departure of the Americans, they must be dreaming. The Obama administration lacks the vision and strategy, and that the regime in Baghdad lacked the ability to protect core American interests in Iraq, including ensuring that the collapse of the state, and not to the outbreak of civil war, and not to Iran's growing influence, and the failure of the al-Qaeda or the militias Iran founded havens in Iraq. In addition, the Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki does not do something about the political settlement of ethnic and sectarian. For Mr. Cogan's pro-war, all Americans gained over nine years, is fraught with danger. But if there were not guarantees of non-occurrence of such disasters during the few months following the departure of the Americans, what a victory is this? What we have achieved in a war that cost us blood, heavy - of Iraqis and Americans - and large amounts of money? President Obama addressed the pieces in the fortress of Barak, "We leave behind a stable Iraq, a sovereign, relying on himself, he has a representative government elected by the people." Do you really did it?
extremist groups have de-half of the Christians and the rest fled from the country. Maliki's moves against the fighters of the Awakening movement, General Petraeus, who persuaded them to fight al-Qaeda against the integration of the Iraqi armed forces. Sunnis see themselves as marginalized in a country which prevailed throughout history. Al-Qaeda continues Bahjmadtha terror against civilians in order to foment sectarian war. While traveling Americans to Kuwait, Iran is making efforts to replace America Knfoz foreign controlled in Baghdad.
I Ankhaddana facts false, we have believed that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction and is ready for use, and that he was behind the events of atheist th of September. Strangely, too, despite the fact that Bush and his partners had planned the war in September 11, 2001 - if not before - no one was thinking before the announcement.
However, the disaster that may still plague us in Iraq did not include the supporters of war who incite So far, the new war against Iran, which is estimated at three times the size of Iraq.
