Japan Orders Withdrawal of Ground Troops From Iraq, Ending Groundbreaking Mission

By JOSEPH COLEMAN

TOKYO Jun 20, 2006 (AP)— Japan ordered the withdrawal of its ground troops from Iraq on Tuesday, declaring the humanitarian mission a success and ending a groundbreaking dispatch that tested the limits of its pacifist postwar constitution.

Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi said the 600 non-combat troops deployed in early 2004 had helped rebuild infrastructure in the area where they were based, and he pledged further aid to Iraqi reconstruction.

They seem to have gotten the job done in their designated area. I wonder how long until we get our part fixed up and taken care of.
