i quess it struck obama that pulling the us forces out of iraq wouldn't solve the problem in iraq (like his guantanamo bay idea) especially if we tell the terrorist when we're leaving.
so his new plan for iraq is to slowly take the armed forces out and send in military and civilian trainers to train the iraqi police to defent their own country. which is good because they can take care of their country and we can focus on ours!
since the iraqi police have done nothing and spent nothing on their war and we've spent oh about 656.1 billion on just the war on iraq. that doesn't include a cent for the surrounding countries.
and in the current economic state we're in an extra 656.1 billion could possibly help the country.
