Exactly, through lack of support, and by allowing militias etc to gain power, hence why we should remain until the Iraqi goverment are able to keep the peace, rather than withdraw and let things get worse.
It's all about thinking of your fellow man rather than sticking two fingers up at them and leaving them to be killed.
The likes of Locky have stated they'd prefer Iraqi's be left to kill each other (actually he said British business should profit from foreigners killing each other).
Pulling out the troops before the Iraqi government is able to maintain order would have that effect.
