How perfect the timing. Obama can now declare victory, even though the same number of people die per day as in 2003.
If the solution was so simple as a surge, why was said surge not the order of the day before W's run against John Kerry?

What will happen if a new attack inside the Iraqi controlled Green Zone happenings? It will now be called progress because the press will focus the outrage of the Iraq people.

As long as there are troops there the war is still on. Like Korea. The opposition will not surrender, perhaps rest.

You do realize that he owns a business and most likely has a business account with his carrier which would mean he probably didn't pay jack shit for his phone. Plus you can get a BB on ebay for like $50 these days. Just saying.

I think Mek will be aware of that. Over here in the UK, all phones are free on contract.

For the most part the yare here too. I have the Wing, it's like a $400 phone and I only paid $50 for it with a 2 year contract. I wouldn't spend full price on a phone unless it had a glory hole in it....and did all of the work.

$20 wasn't too bad for a Christmas present . Especially considering her Mom pays for the plan.

Global War on Terror just getting started maybe.  No timeframe on that one.

Still unsure how the "War is over"?

I have come to rely on the gps feature of my phone for driving to clients house.
I use the internet to transfer the phones to cell phones and check voicemails via my vonage plan, receive email bid requests whilst on the road, and can do online banking.

my blackberry rocks.


the war is over in that we have agreed to be out within a timeline, our troops will be subject to iraqi law and they control the green zone.
now, what I want to know is when will they reimburse us?

they cannot reimburse us for our real losses.  nobody can.
i have a feeling that Obama will not produce as much "change" as he sold in his campaign, but time will tell.

Later in his campaign he said the exact same thing Bush said. Commanders on the ground will dictate how and when we withdrawal. Few people caught that.. or they just chose to ignore it. He also said, "we can't ignore the opportunities presented in Iraq".

I know, they'll just calculate your tab on the cost of the war and then add interest.

What's that come to, a few billion in interest, on top of the few trillion it's cost you?

Sure that'll work.

Anything which goes right in the next four (eight?) years will be thanks to Obama.

Anything which goes wrong will be down to Bush.

A better link I think.
Good to hear

This bit sounds promising. 

Although Baghdad is calmer now, the Green Zone is full of unsettling reminders of war. Duck-and-cover bunkers dot sidewalks under lush date palms. Walls bear signs warning drivers not to stop for any reason and frequent speed bumps force vehicles to a near crawl.

Even before U.S. troops took control of the area in 2003 and put up the walls, the neighborhood had an air of intimidation. Saddam and his sons had lavish residences there and motorists who drove through understood they shouldn't stop.

Now, Iraqi officials have their eyes on making the area accessible, inspiring and educational, even though it's not yet clear when they will feel confident enough to take down the walls.

"It depends. There are many steps to take," Iraqi Security Minister Sherwan al-Waili said when asked about prospects for opening the zone.

In July, the National Investment Commission approved plans to build a $100 million luxury hotel in the zone.

And in the next couple of months, the Iraqi High Tribunal plans to open a museum in the zone detailing the brutality of Saddam's regime. It will include a replica of the hole-in-the-ground hideout where Saddam was captured in 2004, two years before he was executed, tribunal head Arif Abdul-Razzak Al-Shaheen told the newspaper Asharq al-Awsat last month.
They need to dismantle "the green zone" , and it sounds like they plan to

Why should they?
I keep hearing the war was in US national security interests, why should the average Iraqi have to pay for it?
