They don't have an army to rise up against the terrorists next door.
Unless we commit to getting rid of the Iranian regime and the terrorists there and in Syria, we can't just abandon Iraq. They would be taken over by the Iranian regime.
That's the most disgraceful aspect of this whole situation. The U.S. has basically p!ssed away 1,200+ American lives and billions of dollars doing something (which may not be successful in the end anyway) that could have been accomplished simply by providing every adult Iraqi with an AK-47 and a thousand rounds of ammunition.
