Iraq is sovereign, too. The US has no overflight rights to give. Iraq allows the US to fly there, but only at Iraqi sufferance and as part of training the new Iraqi Air Force, which is buying F-16Is, among other aircraft. Their radar is now Iraqi controlled.

They are also buying other American stuff, like Abrams tanks and some of our new anti-IED vehicles. The US is on its way out of Iraq under a deal made by Bush and being implemented by Obama. But we`re not leaving a vacuum behind.
