It's just leaving the CITIES. There will still be 120 thousand troops spread out everywhere else... Nice contribution — let’s not forget, though, that the US isn’t actually LEAVING Iraq.

Hmmm. 1) Saddam Hussein launched a brutal and merciless 8 year war on Iran, backed by the US. That Iran was just a little peeved, and Saddam a little concerned about retribution, is really no surprise to anyone, except Yasmin, it would appear. 2) Saddam is now dead, and his fears are only interesting as history, not as any indication of current politics. 3) Iran has more oil than Iraq. Scarcity of crude is not Iran's biggest economic problem right now. Other than that, this was a really insightful entry! so, to recap then:
