What does a typical home in iraq look like?
Blue
When is the troops come home from Iraq?
The president said he would take out troops from Iraq sometime in 2011. Just remember, you can't always trust presidents.
Is war in Iraq an issue that president Obama has tried to correct?
Yes, absolutely. One of Mr. Obama's campaign promises was that he would end US involvement in Iraq, a war he never agreed with. After he was elected, he worked with the military to begin bringing the troops home. While there are still some troops in Iraq, the vast majority were brought home by 2011, as promised.
Did Obama ask the American troops to leave Iraq?
No, he did not. President Obama had promised to withdraw troops and end the Iraq War; but he was also willing to leave a residual force in Iraq. Unfortunately, the new leader of Iraq at that time, Nouri Al Maliki, did not want American troops there, and no agreement was reached to keep them there. Therefore, no residual force was left in Iraq in 2011 when US troops came home.
