I can only shake my head at everyone hoping for a sudden shift in spending from military to domestic infrastructure. The United States has been fighting wars somewhere in the world for about two hundred years, that's not going to change any time soon.

lol, get ready for iraq to be taken over by a dictator again. And it's going to cost more to pull out the troops than to keep them there. But we won't have to pay for it after that.
Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools!

I'd say business was the only thing they had there.

Not unless they get sent to somewhere else..

Well, good news though. Hopefully Iraq can survive alone.

No other real options. No money to keep anything there.

I'd like to remind everyone that GW Bush declared victory in Iraq back in 2003.

Great news, let the boys go home

This will have a big impact on the next presidential election, Obama was looking weak until they got Bin Laden and now this. No doubt he will want to take credit for all of it.

Should never have been started but that is another topic, i am happy its over.

Looks like there is no more oil....

On the serious note.
Would the american economy survive without the war? Weapon industry had been keeping the economy alive for the past few years.

Hmm, time will tell what kind of nation Iraq will become.

Whatever country it will become, I hope it can become the country that the Iraqis want it to be, not the one outsiders/the west want it to be.

Do they have a stable foundation? I feel like there's just going to be another Uncle Saddam in the next few years who will bring the country back where it started. And then the US will have to go back in for Round 3.

Another surge of approval for Obama no doubt, but it'll die off by the next election

But I'm still happy for the news. Now just Afghanistan left.

I think that one of the big legitimate criticisms of Obama has been that he really hasn't followed through on the commitments made to his base during the last campaign. This would go a long way to fix that.

So I guess Obama did keep his promise ... only he is two years too late.
