President Obama Announces Troop Drawdown in Iraq

In a speech at Camp LeJeune in North Carolina, President Obama laid out his plan for responsibly ending the war in Iraq, which will end the combat mission by August 2010.

It’s the end of combat service in Iraq and the beginning of a long and difficult transition to a stable middle east region. Remember that more than 50 years have passed since the Korean War and still there are 20-30 thousand troops stationed there.
