6. You can't just pull everyone out lickety split.
You'll cause more damage than intended if you leave everything in an unstable state. Once your elbow deep in the shit that is the US meddling in the Middle East... you're past the point of no return, so to speak. Yes the people probably hate the soldiers and no our boys don't like being there but only when the state can defend itself adequately can we GTFO.

Could we physically pull out immediately? yes.
Will we? No. It makes no sense at this point in time.
