Isn't that cutting & running?
You have forgotten his speeches in which he repeatedly said, "As the Iraqi security forces stand up we will stand down."

This week the coalition forces returned another province to Iraqi control. That is what we call, "Standing up".

Standing down is when coalition forces remove themselves from the theater of operations -- as the UK did in S. Iraq upon their turn-over to Iraqi forces.
