"We do not want to be surprised by a withdrawal that is not in connection with our Iraqi timing,"' he said.

I don't see anywhere where it says leave now! They want their forces trained to the point where they can take control THEN we should pull out.
they asked the u.s. to hurry and train the troops before so the pullout couldve been about right now.
