Although I would welcome the withdrawal and dismantling of all mercenary groups in Iraq and in all the other countries were they operate I would not count on that happening anytime soon. The US army is now a minority compared to the contractor groups in Iraq and the troops are so overstretched that there is no way they can replace them. Added to that Blackwater is protecting all the VIP’s, not the US army. It will be until hell freezes over before they leave Iraq.
