U.S. troops could stay longer in Iraq

The United States has offered to stay longer in Iraq, if they are asked. In order to extend the U.S. present in Iraq the Iraqi government would have to ask, but with the government still struggling it may not be such an easy order. Currently the U.S. has to leave by the end of 2011, the extension would add on a enough time to get Iraq fully stabilized. The U.S. worries that once they leave a political outbreak will again occur between the Sunnis and Shiites while trying to reform the Iraqi government.
