A status of forces agreement is normal when an "occupying force" starts to downsize. When I was stationed in Frankfurt in the early 80's we were still functioning under a SOFA from WW2. The current government of Iraq is made up of a variety of factions, even more complicted than our democrats vs republicans and add other parties, and most of them are armed. Our talking heads can't agree on anything, so no surprise that their's can't either. I believe that if our troops stayed they needed that protection. Mostly I am happy that OUR troops will be home for the holidays. I doubt there is anything that Obama can do at this point to get him reelected, because of the state of the economy, but yayyyy to the end of the American war in Iraq.
