LOL ok sorry but its your fault you have no details in your profile so I don't know who you are or what your knowledge is.
If you were military you would of known about the long term bases that are to be leased from the Iraqi government.
LOL you didn't think we were going to pack are bags and shut up shop at endex did you.
These plans amongst others were detailed in the Pentagon Review I think it was 7th or 8th of February 2006.
In fact that review details what the media termed America's Long War.
It identifies four priority areas.
1)Defeating terrorist networks.
2)Defending the homeland in depth(NMAOI).
3)Shaping the choice of countries at strategic crossroads.
4)Preventing hostile states and non-state actors from acquiring or using weapons of mass destruction.
