OMG! Have You Heard? US Has No Plans To Withdrawal!

J.J. Jackson* | April 9, 2008 

Liberal blogs are abuzz over a story the other day in the UK Guardian in which they discuss a secret document detailing an agreement for continual troops in Iraq to support the Iraqi government without, GASP, a timeline for withdrawl!

A confidential draft agreement covering the future of US forces in Iraq, passed to the Guardian, shows that provision is being made for an open-ended military presence in the country.

The draft strategic framework agreement between the US and Iraqi governments, dated March 7 and marked “secret” and “sensitive”, is intended to replace the existing UN mandate and authorises the US to “conduct military operations in Iraq and to detain individuals when necessary for imperative reasons of security” without time limit.

This is freaking news? Hello! Have you been listening to anything President Bush has been saying? Is this thing on?

Of course you note that the Guardian does admit that US “does not desire permanent bases or a permanent military presence in Iraq”. But that is beside the point right? The liberals want a time line! And they want withdrawal yesterday!
