The Washington Post reports: Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) yesterday called for the withdrawal of 20,000 troops from Iraq by year’s end as the first step in a proposal that would significantly reduce U.S. military forces in the region over the next 15 months.

Kerry offered a middle ground between those advocating an immediate drawdown of the more than 150,000 U.S. troops stationed in Iraq and the Bush administration, which has declined to set a timetable for a decreased U.S. military presence.

So whats your opinion for the best way out? I feel there isn’t any easy answer to this, probably a gradual withdrawal synchronized with training enough Iraqi troops to handle their own security. In the end Iraq will need to handle itself and the sooner that happens the better.
