The President said that he can withdraw a handful of troops without the surge because the surge has been a success. But when he leaves office. troop levels will actually be higher than it was before the surge. That leads me to ask a simple question. If the surge has been so successful. why do we need more troops after the surge than before it? The President also said that normal life is returning to Iraq. Try telling that to the 4 million Iraqis who are still refugees and not able to return. Half of them are children. The President also told us that civilian deaths are down.
