ZitatThe United States plans to withdraw 2,200 troops from Iraq before the end of September, a top U.S. official said Wednesday.
“We are continuing to expand on our partner capacity programs that enable Iraqi forces and allow us to reduce our footprint in Iraq,” Marine General Frank McKenzie, the head of U.S. Central Command, said during a visit to Iraq.
The drawdown will take the number of American forces to 3,000.
A senior administration official told reporters on Air Force One late Tuesday that there would be an announcement regarding further troop withdrawals from Iraq.
The official also said there would be an announcement concerning Afghanistan in the coming days.
Ever since late May, peaceful protesters in Portland have been peacefully smashing, looting, robbing, and burning things in a desperate attempt to make their once-quaint mountain town resemble Mogadishu.~~TakiMag
