U.S. Military Exits Iraq, Leaving a Nation in Peril

Original: The U.S. Military Exits Iraq, Leaving Behind a Nation in Peril

The Wall Street Journal reports that the U.S. military is withdrawing from Iraq, ending a two-decade presence that began with the 2003 invasion. The withdrawal leaves behind a country analysts describe as fragile, with questions over security, Iranian influence, and the ability of Iraqi forces to contain militant threats. The departure marks a significant shift in America's Middle East posture.

Why now: The completion of a major U.S. military withdrawal naturally draws attention to Iraq's stability and regional consequences.
