Deputy Director, Combined Joint Operations Baghdad Iraq - Ministry of Defense
Your Excellency,
Sir, in due deference to the sovereignty of the Republic of Iraq, and as requested by the Iraqi Parliament and the Prime Minister, CJTF-OIR will be repositioning forces over the course of the coming days and weeks to prepare for onward movement.
In order to conduct this task, Coalition Forces are required to take certain measures to ensure that the movement out of Iraq is conducted in a safe and efficient manner.
During this time, there will be an increase in helicopter travel in and around the International Zone (IZ) of Baghdad. This increased traffic will include CH47, VH-00, and AH-64 security escort helicopters.
Coalition Forces will take appropriate measures to minimize and mitigate the disturbance to the public. In addition, we will conduct these operations during hours of darkness to help alleviate any perception that we may be bringing more Coalition Forces into the IZ.
As we begin implementing this next phase of operations, I wish to reiterate the value of our friendship and partnership. We respect your sovereign decision to order our departure.
Very Respectfully,
WILLIAM H. SEELY III
Brigadier General, U.S. Marine Corps
Commanding General, TF-Iraq

The general is responsible or is it just fake news? It would be great to get out of nation Building however.

I'm going with "Fake News". 3 -
citizens of iraq should be terrified of this prospect.......maybe we should just move all of our troops and military around the oilfields and let the primitives overrun the rest 0 -
Let's hope that the withdrawal of troops is followed by a termination of foreign aid to Iraq, both money and equipment. 0 -

:Pumped up and B.S. News reported tonight the so-called letter was just a DRAFT LETTER and was UNSIGNED!
The intent was repositioning of troops and NOT a withdrawal.
I'd guess some boob got hold of it and fed it to the media for ??? reason.
