The American soldiers left in Iraq are supposedly meant to be trainers to the Iraqi soldiers. American soldiers believe that they will be in Iraq for many years to come. America's imprint in Iraqi affairs will be there for a long. Combat soldiers are still positioned in bases in Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait that all border Iraq.
Also peace in Iraq still hasn't been restored. Things in Iraq were not very peaceful in the first place but but it should be a obligation for the Iraqi people. Sadaam Hussein, the former dictator of Iraq, was only able to maintain some sort of peace due to the torturing of thousands of civilians. Operation Iraqi Freedom, started by ex-President George Bush, officially ended Aug 31, but peace between the main religious groups, the Sunnis and Shites has yet to happen. The water is polluted, sanitation is hazardous, and insurgents are still killing innocent civilians. Car bombs are still going off daily around the country.

I'm not saying that leaving Iraq was the wrong move, but the problem is why we entered.
