Good news to see Iraq feeling confident enough to do this. I'm sure the people of Iraq are well tired of "cap in hand" and "by your leave" relations with all their neighbors. I look forward to when Iraq and the US seek one another's support, not permission or patronage.

You're kidding me. He's actually got a wife? And daughter? I'm thinking, they are pretty lucky to be alive...
