This is under "Entertainment" because the question is rooted in the movie "Why We Fight" (2005 edition, not the 1940s propaganda film) which I watched last night on TV.

Towards the end one of the talking heads said, paraphrasing: 'We are never leaving Iraq. We have 14 permanent military bases under construction there right now'.

Do you expect U.S. troops to be totally gone from Iraq when "the troops pull out" or do you expect U.S. troops to be totally gone from Iraq when the oil runs out, or when do you expect troops to fully and totally be gone from Iraq?
