It's a lose/lose situation.

If we keep our boys there and try to maintain a state of calm and peace; there is every chance in the world that we're going to lose so many more lives of both Iraqis and members of the coalition.
If we take our troops out; holy hell will break loose. Many different sides fighting to take over power of Iraq - the country will become one big no man's land. Also, the innocent people of Iraq will feel let down by the Brittish and Americans - and that feeling along with a strong religion is not a good situation to be on the other side of, as many have learned.
The area was a mess before we went in. We need to learn from our mistakes and keep/pull our noses out of evolving situations. Holy Hell is loose already with different sides fighting to take over power in Iraq, despite our troops being there. They are just in the middle taking crossfire from all sides.
