From that link:

"In the meantime, the U.S. Embassy is looking for ways to push Iraqis to resolve the deadlock. Iraq's political leaders are only just now taking preliminary steps toward creating a new government, which has been stalled by ballot challenges and bickering over whether to disqualify winning candidates accused of having links to the outlawed Baathist Party."

If Iraq still hasn't created a new Government yet, how can their Government be telling us to leave?
Dude. They established a new government years ago. This is a deadlock over the recent election, not establishment of their government. WAAAAAY out of context.

I was in Iraq during their first election, FYI. FOUR YEARS AGO.
