American forces recently ended their permanent presence in Iraq's major cities.

Iraqi authorities are set to take full control of the new democracy. At last, stability has arrived in the region; all calm on the streets, all contracts in place. Hollywood is standing by.
The exact phrase used by the US administration for its exit strategy is 'pulling out'. Well excuse the vernacular but to many people, pulling out is what you do when you've fucked something.
According to United Nations statistics meanwhile, Baghdad is now considered safer then Mogadishu. Mission accomplished, then.
