The Iraq War began in 2003 and ended in 2011. The Insurgency in Iraq began in 2005 and continues to this day. (The difference in terminology is that the Iraq War was foreign powers fighting in Iraq to secure the country and the Insurgency is the Iraqi Government fighting in Iraq to secure the country.
The question is a moot point considering that the United States has now left Iraq, but the bottom line was that there was nothing further for the American troops to do in Iraq that they could have accomplished short of maintaining an indefinite occupation of the region.
If you are asking about the Iraq war there has been no peace treaty.
