President Barack Obama declared an end to the war in Iraq Friday, one of the longest and most divisive wars in U.S. history. He announced that ALL troops will be withdrawn by the end of the year.
President Obama’s statement “After nearly nine years, America’s war in Iraq will be over.”
This statement put an end to months of debating over whether the U.S. would maintain a force in Iraq beyond 2011.
He spoke at the White House after a private video conference with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, and he offered assurances that the two leaders agreed on the decision. The American withdrawal by the end of 2011 was sealed in a deal between the two countries when George W. Bush was president. Obama declared the end of the combat mission earlier this year.
Way to go OBAMA and it’s about damn time!!
No comment
so fuckin what ! he takin them from iraq and sending more troops to afgan .my neighbor just left monday.
He’s said this before, I call bullshit.
these folks can spend some of their disposable income here….finally…
thanks to lord, well done Obama god bless america.
My aunt is in Iraq. I won’t hold my breath. Corporations and contractors are making some serious dough on this war. They won’t roll over so easily on losing billions of dollars. Please believe that.
No Family Overseas… But, I’m Glad The US Troops Are Coming HOME.
Obama has just made a brilliate idea,for sure those troops need to be home and see their families,i dont care whether its a campaign strategy for obama but thats a good thing,am sure their families are so happy
Stop blaming Obama…He hasn’t been in office for nine years, so he’s still trying to clean up the mess the others put us in….going back to Jimmy Carter to…that’s a strategic President, he’s not in office because of his looks..he’s in their because he’s smart.
All I can say is that if thus happen it will and should be contributed to the Allmighty!! I’ve had three sisters to go over there and one is there now on her third deployment. I would like nothing more than for her to return home to her beautiful one year old daughter. Furthermore, Obama isn’t the one who started this he’s just trying to end it sensible. It takes time to undo the Bush’s mess; just look at the economy!!!!!!!
Simply Lies he said it before. Playn with peoples emotions!!!
Semper Fi…Glad about this…we will be waiting for the return of all are warfighter fr Iraq.
He never gave a time they’d be coming home before… Can we just wait till the end of the year before we say it isn’t gonna happen?

I mean check it, sure it’s a great thing that the troops are FINALLY leaving Iraq, but take into consideration the state of this country, we are in the brinks of an economic meltdown. And what happens when the dollar collapses, how else are you gonna keep order but by means of “Martial Force”…Just saying…2+2 = 4
yay! Goooo obama!
Why are people getting mad 9 years after the war was declared? Ya’ll wazs gungs ho when Bush found wmd’s that didn’t exist, now you wanna blame it on Obama. Man the people of this country are confused lemmings.
How kind of him to coincidentally wait for election season to bring the disposables back. They’re going to be needed come the next distraction.

Great political call, strategy, and all around right thing to do. And best of all can’t nobody touch this.
PRICELESS!!!
PRICELESS!!!
You know that’s a lie. Their not coming home entirely.That would never happen. Think about it, why would the U.S. let that happen? Unless the are planning on doing another staged attack to start a new war. The government has too much to gain by keeping their presence in Iraq. How many other times has this been announced before since 2001? The Iraq war / occupation is never supposed to end just like the Vietnam war was really never supposed to end. You people are so naive, but then again…your typical Americans, so you’ll believe anything and you will sit down and take anything, especially if it comes from a brown face. Millions of jobs taken from you in 2001 when America told corporation its okay to abandon you and move their work to overseas. And what do you typical Americans do? YOU continue to do business with the very same companies that shitted on you and left you wondering how you would pay you rent or feed your family. Then, that same year, your government adds insult to injury by killing innocent people and destroying and entire block of buildings at the WTC on 9-11-01 just so they can have a reason to trick your sons, fathers and brothers into commit themselves to slaughter in Iraq. I am born American myself, but it should be a crime to be than damn stupid. Dammit wise up already, damn.
And to Kissy, all I see is cleavage on your profile, where is your face? Please have some dignity and cover it up. Your face and personality should be enough to get the attention you want.

Careful people. He is a skilled orator like I said many times before. He’s just a tool of Powerful men who don’t want to show their faces. It’s a good thing to get these brave men and women home. Problem is that this is simply a campaign strategy to get reelected among many other strategies. All very intelligent and premeditated speeches filled with lies. Non of the people who fund these broadcasts give a SHIT! about these troops. They are nothing but cannon fodder in an elaborate plan to occupy the globe entirely. En route to GLobal Occupation!
