It's not just a case of handing over power to the Iraqi's. Who exactly do you hand over to? Until a properly formed Govt. is in place and operating there is no way that they can be left to themselves. If the Coalition forces were to pull out tomorrow, the only result would be civil war. Not only that, the neighbouring countries Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Iran would also most likely be drawn in.
