DoD Official Says U.S. Troop Redeployment In Iraq Dependent On Upcoming Elections

U.S. Department of Defense Undersecretary for policy Michele Flournoy says that President Obama's deadline to have U.S. troops withdrawn from Iraq by 2012 is "conditions-based," and that those conditions depend on issues like the January elections in Iraq. She says as far as elections are concerned, the DOD believes the current lack of an elections law in Iraq is not reason for concern yet. (0:29)
