Iraqis rejoice as U.S. troops leave Baghdad

BAGHDAD (Reuters) – U.S. troops pulled out of Baghdad on Monday, triggering jubilation among Iraqis hopeful that foreign military occupation is ending six years after the invasion to depose Saddam Hussein.

Iraqi soldiers paraded through the streets in their American-made vehicles draped with Iraqi flags and flowers, chanting, dancing and calling the pullout a "victory."

We'll be back again someday.

For some reason, it just seems inevitable.

What a waste, in so many ways. The Iraqi people will regret not taking advantage of us getting rid of Saddam and taking control of their own country.
