Should America Leave Iraq?
Since the beginning of the war more than 350 American soldiers died (“Iraq Coalition Casualties”) and 15,000 Iraqis were killed on the first days of war (“Special Reports”). It is strongly felt that American troops should be withdrawn from the Iraq’s soil, keeping in view the factors which are of grave concern. America has been spending billions of dollars in war at the cost of taxpayer’s money resulting in adverse economic scenario. The persistence of troops in Iraq has resulted in the escalation of terrorist activities, suicide bombings, and bloodshed. The presence of Coalition troops and their combing operations has resulted in mass casualties of Iraqi’s. The Coalition troops were also killed in retaliation by Iraqi’s.
