Iraq and its OWN Future!

BBC News: Reports on recent negative reaction within Iraq for the US to leave by 2011. On this issue President Obama is right, the US and Iraq have an agreement signed by Bush 43 for the US to have combat troops out of Iraq by 2010 and all troops out by 2011, at the end of the day to quote JFK, “ its their War ” Kennedy was talking about South Vietnam but it holds true for Iraq, at the end of the day the people of Iraq will have to decide do they want civil war on peace, a growing secular Iraq or to be run from Tehran. The US is broke folks, thus Obama has no choice, also there is Afghanistan, its time for Iraq to get off the dime and fight for its own future.
