Who's leaving Iraq?

As the Pentagon considers a US troop reduction - from 142,000 to about 105,000 by this time next year - other coalition forces are pulling out of Iraq.

Poland's Defense Minister Jerzy Szmajdzinski said on Tuesday all 1,700 Polish troops will withdraw from Iraq at the end of 2005. South Korean defense ministry officials said earlier this month it would cut its military presence there by 270 troops to 3,270. The last contingent of 800 Dutch troops returned home earlier this month.
