Iraq faces sovereignty test as US-led military coalition exit nears

Comments

1. Freya: still no word on whether the 'withdrawal' actually means a complete pull-out or just another troop rotation
2. Noraokafor: you'd think the Iraqi military would be more prepared given all the training they got from the US
3. Umbra Kite: it's getting harder to convince them of anything when the hardware lingers
4. Rossitalia: looks like the US is finally cutting and running. Not exactly a fan of foreign occupations.
5. Silent Moth: it seems like every country is still trying to learn how to stand on its own two feet
6. Jonas: hard to believe we're at another withdrawal deadline; what happens next?
7. Danelundxo: it's strange how every withdrawal sounds like a guarantee for more chaos than stability somehow
8. Kiana: seems like some things never change in the Middle East
9. Lena: coalition's got less than two months to prove they're committed to stability, not just their exit strategy
10. Miaholt: hope they don't just dump all their instability on iraq like a bad handoff to another team
