U.S. troops could begin coming home this year
General Lance Smith said U S forces in Iraq might withdraw in significant numbers if insurgent violence stays low through year-end elections. He warned that a larger insurgency or delays by the Iraqi government could delay any drawdown. If violence remains down, Iraqi security forces could take the lead while U S troops serve mainly as rapid response. Gen George Casey will draft summer drawdown plans.
