US troops were gradually removed as the US atttempted to prop up the lawful government. All the Americans left by December 18,2011. Iraq is still struggling to maintain a stable government. Insurgents constantly make attacks with guns and bombs.

Obama wants to take the troops out of Iraq in a responsible manner. He believes that the troops were irresponsibly placed in Iraq and he says that there have been enough casualties.


Who ended the US role in the War in Iraq Barack Obama or Mitt Romney or both?

President Obama did that. Only the Commander in Chief can start a war (with the consent of Congress), and only the Commander in Chief can end it. Since Mitt Romney was not the president, he could not end any war, nor could he start one. Mr. Obama promised as a candidate in 2008 that he would end the war in Iraq if he was elected. He kept his promise.


Is war in Iraq an issue that president Obama has tried to correct?

Yes, absolutely. One of Mr. Obama's campaign promises was that he would end US involvement in Iraq, a war he never agreed with. After he was elected, he worked with the military to begin bringing the troops home. While there are still some troops in Iraq, the vast majority were brought home by 2011, as promised.


What is the democratic view of war in Iraq?

They don't agree with it and want to end it. but obama is a hybrid who just says he will end it but does nothing.


Did Obama ask the American troops to leave Iraq?

No, he did not. President Obama had promised to withdraw troops and end the Iraq War; but he was also willing to leave a residual force in Iraq. Unfortunately, the new leader of Iraq at that time, Nouri Al Maliki, did not want American troops there, and no agreement was reached to keep them there. Therefore, no residual force was left in Iraq in 2011 when US troops came home.

Can Barack Obama send solders to Iraq and stop the war?

Answer 1He promised when he was elected president that he would end our involvement in Iraq, and that is exactly what he did.Answer 2It is unclear what the question is asking. If it is asking if Barack Obama has the power to send soldiers to Iraq and he has the power to stop the war in Iraq, then yes. As president of the United States he has the power to move troops wherever he desires. He also has the power to end military engagements. If the question is whether Barack Obama can do both actions at the same, then no. Sending soldiers to a foreign nation would not stop a war, it would start one.
