BAGHDAD, Sept 12 (Reuters) - Multinational forces in Iraq could drop to less than 100,000 by the end of next year if Iraq's own security forces were ready, Iraq's national security adviser said on Wednesday. "Maybe it is not far from the truth if we said that by the end of next year, multinational forces could be less than 100,000," Mowaffaq al-Rubaie told a news conference.
