US Drones Patrol Iraq

The Takeaway

The U.S. is out of Iraq. President Obama made that point in last week’s State of the Union address. But there are still eyes on Iraq particularly those places where there are still U.S. personnel –  such as the U.S. Embassy In Baghdad. Those eyes are in the form of predator drones, watching over Baghdad according to Eric Schmitt  terrorism correspondent for our partner The New York Times.
