The policy decisions of recent months offer little more hope for a fundamental change in US foreign policy direction. While the US has signed an agreement with Iraq to leave by the end of 2011, there is talk in the Pentagon that US “non-combat” troops will remain in the country for years or decades to come.
最近几个月的政策决策也没有让我们在美国对外政策的根本性改变方面多看到一点希望。虽然美国已经和伊拉克签署了在2011年前撤军的协定，但五角大楼有消息称美国“非战斗性”部队会继续驻扎在该国几年或几十年。
