Lkr Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 US President Barack Obama has confirmed the end of all combat operations in Iraq by 31 August. Some 50,000 of 65,000 US troops currently in Iraq are set to remain until the end of 2011 to advise Iraqi forces and protect US interests. Mr Obama proclaimed that the end of operations would arrive "as promised and on schedule". It comes amid a dispute between the US and Baghdad over the latest casualty numbers in Iraq.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/10839342 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
