"Britain announced Wednesday it will withdraw all but a handful of its 4,000 soldiers from Iraq next year, ending a mission that was unpopular at home and failed to curb the rise of Iranian-backed Shiite militias in the south. The decision comes as the United States is weighing a drawdown in its nearly 150,000-strong force."

It appears Obama has convinced everyone to withdraw . . . except us. We own the war from here on, with no help or support.
I'm waiting for Obama to begin the promised "immediate redeployment" on January 21.
