After more than seven years of war, the United States Of America will end it's combat mission in Iraq and take an important step forward in responsibly ending the war in Iraq. At the Beginning of Presedent Obama's term he promised to end the war in Iraq and he's finaly fulfulling his promise. Although 50,000 troops will remain in Iraq they will not be concidered combat troops. They will just be teaching the Iraq troops how to fend for themselves.
I think this story is important to all Americans. Everyone who cares even a little about our nation would be concerned about a 7 1/2 year long war finally coming to an end.
In my opinion if we leave now the entire war was pointless because nothing got finished or solved but on the other hand I'm really glad to see the troops come home they have done a lot and deserve to be with their familes.
