but there is some uncertainty
So everyone knows how the war has been going on in Iraq for the past several years. Now, Obama confirms this plan for the withdrawal of troops, fulfilling his campaign promise to end this war.
However, there is much uncertainty because many people worry that if the Americans leave Iraq, terrorist attacks and more violence will increase in Iraq. There have also been rising fears that the ongoing political uncertainty could hinder the plans for a full US military departure by the end of 2011 since many Iraqis are concerned about the failure to form a government, especially with an inconclusive legislative election in March with the disagreements between the Sunni, Shia, and Kurdish factions on who should be the next prime minister of the country.
Even though there is some uncertainty, Iraq is now a safer country than it was in the former years, especially 2006 and 2007. Now, people go into the streets and don't have the daily worry of being massacred and violently murdered even though security there isn't that great.
I don't think that withdrawing the troops will be a very easy thing for the Iraqis to deal with. Even though many oppose the Americans being in their country, our troops have provided them with security, and there has been less violence. However, if our troops continue to train Iraqis like they are now, I believe that Iraq can be a safer and more secure country.
