If carried out, an expulsion of the approximately 5,300 American troops would deprive the U.S. of bases to conduct operations against Islamic State in Iraq

Outrage over last week’s killing fueled a nonbinding vote Sunday in Iraq’s parliament to expel U.S. forces, putting further pressure on the Baghdad government to take more decisive steps to constrain or eliminate the U.S. military presence.
