《洛杉矶时报》2010年8月12日头条：美军撤出将使伊拉克边境面临安全风险

　　Iraq borders at risk in pullout

　　A future U.S. presence could be a deterrent, commanders say。

　　Iraq will need U.S. military support for as much as a decade to defend its borders because the Iraqi army won’t be ready to guard the country when American troops leave at the end of 2011, according to U.S. and Iraqi commanders。

　　Commanders say they are reasonably confident of the Iraqi security forces’ ability to keep order while facing insurgents or other internal threats.

Gen. Michael Barbero, commander of the U.S. military training program in Iraq。(节选部分)
