TIRANA, Albania (AP) — Albania's Defense Ministry says the country is pulling its 218 troops out of Iraq.

Albanian troops have been serving in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul since 2003.

Defense Ministry spokeswoman Albana Mustafaraj said Thursday the unit has ended its mission and will return home. She said Defense Minister Gazmend Oketa participated in a ceremony in Mosul where the Albanian flag was lowered.

1. Once we get our asses out of there then the rest of the world can go and help the Iraqi
to rebuild their country. What a shame that despots such as bush/cheney are allowed to destroy a country like they have.
