    General seeks UK Iraq withdrawal

    Fair Use:

    The head of the British Army has said the presence of UK armed forces in Iraq "exacerbates the security problems". In an interview in the Daily Mail, Sir Richard Dannatt, Chief of the General Staff, is quoted as saying the British should "get out some time soon".

    He also said: "Let's face it, the military campaign we fought in 2003, effectively kicked the door in."

    There are currently more than 7,000 British soldiers in Iraq, based largely in Basra in the south of the country.
