Government is not a puppet, because they are publicly against US actions, and asked US to leave.

They couldn't do anything about US actions, yes, because lacking military power.

So you're saying that the Iraqi government does not have a monopoly of violence, and has to share it with the US? That is to say, an occupation. Which you just said wasn't the case.

I don't think it is an occupation as this word is defined.
