The talk about prosecution is posturing for local consumption, but it’s the consequence of setting a firm departure date. The government did the same sort of thing a few years back when its position was shaky and it was pandering to the Shia. Then, the surge came along, and the government started acting like a government for all the Iraqi people. All that is gone now, they’re looking at that departure date and trying to protect themselves from the factions again. Precisely what Bush said would happen.
