    Have not come across that, have you a source please?

    Most commentators seem to view the failure to guarantee immunity to US forces from prosecution after Dec 2011 as a major stumbling block to any continued US military presence. That being said, there will still be a relatively large contingent of US diplomatic staff, some military trainers and of course contractors remaining in theatre with no immediate plan for their withdrawal any time soon.
