"Iraq War ends for a second time; Good for Turkey…
CENGİZ ÇANDAR
U.S. President Barack Obama has announced that the Iraq War is “over.” Since the last U.S. combat units are supposed to leave Iraq at the end of August, Obama met his promise to the American people and declared the “end” of war.
This Iraq War had been ended before, again by the statement of an American president. Obama’s predecessor, George W. Bush, who is the one behind the battle, said in a speech from the flight deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln warship in the Pacific Ocean on May 1, 2003, that “major combat operations” had ended, declaring the liberation of Iraq in the aftermath of the collapse of the dictatorial regime in the country."
