"What gives?"
You aren't paying attention.
Here is a story showing a bit more about Iraqi forces growing, training and taking over more...
http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/03/19/mideast/...
And just in the past week there have been stories about Iraqi forces raiding, killing and capturing al Qaeda and other insurgent operatives. Sometimes with U.S. tactical air support. Sometimes without.
Please send this excellent news to Mr. Bush.
He appears not to have heard it based on his requests to congress for funding and his maintaining troop levels to near the breaking point.
Try reading current news. 3,500 troops scheduled to be sent home in upcoming weeks.
....as part of reducing troops to the pre-surge level, which is to remain constant.
Ohhh ... so now you are qualifying it lol
Reducing troops to pre-surge levels means at least 30,000 going home soon.
