As Karen said, yes, it was said that the "major battles" are over. Then they went on to say that all fighting is not over, just the "major battles". What that is supposed to mean, I'm not really sure. Karen also said that more troops are moving in, yep, that's true too. The 4th Infantry Division just started pushing into Iraq in the last few days. I'm not sure how far they've gotten, but they are on the way in. If our government planned on just packing up and going home, this would not be happening. Lots more business has to be done to make sure the area is secure for their future government that the U.N. is supposed to help them build. So, our forces are not done over there yet. While some may come home, others will be in to replace them so that they can get out of there and get a break. Only time will tell what soldiers will stay, which ones will get to come home, and when all of that will truly happen.
