Today marks one of the most significant points in recent US history, and an event that has largely been overlooked due to the current economic crisis.
Patrick Cockburn in the Independent writes that:
“More than six years after US forces captured Baghdad, American combat troops will withdraw from all Iraqi cities and towns by tonight, handing over full control to the 600,000-strong Iraqi army and police and marking a crucial step in Iraq’s return to independence.”
