| US army chiefs plan ’strategic exit’ from Iraq |
| 2003-10-20 |
| United States commanders in Iraq have drawn up detailed proposals for a rapid reduction of troop numbers over the next 18 months in the first indication of formal planning for an exit strategy. The plans, which have been put to Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary, but not yet approved by him, suggest reducing the American forces from 130,000 to about 100,000 by next summer. More snipped. Goes on to mention being down to around 50,000 by 2005, which sounds like something I’d heard before. |
