By citing "some Iraqi's" you seem to ignore the political realities of Iraq and their sponsoring benefactor. But it is incredibly easy to simply ignore that and claim all we needed was "leadership". That makes it easier to blame one's domestic political opposition for the SOFA end date negotiated by the previous Administration.<br /><br />"When the Americans asked for immunity, the Iraqi side answered that it was not possible.
