1. The current event that the article deals with is that the last of the U.S. Combat Troops in Iraq left Iraq for good, almost a week earlier than scheduled.
2. The people that the article deals with are the United States Army, 4th Stryker Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division.
3. The problems with the article are that there could have been many road bombs put there by "Shiite extremist groups with a strong foothold in the south". There is no bias written from the author becuase he is not talking about the conflict in Iraq, he is merely reporting that the troops are leaving. There are no aspects that I know of about the removal of troops from Iraq that were left out of the article.
4. My opinion of the article is that it is a very well written article because he does not address any side in a bad way or good way, the event is not about a conflict. It is just about the removal of U.S. troops from Iraq. I did feel bad for the troops being in those conditions " and the temperatures outside that reached 50 Celsius (120 Fahrenheit)". Riding long car rides can be brutal enough, but being cramped in a U.S. Army truck, in 120 Fahrenheit must be very, very brutal.
