"U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama talks about 16 months. That, we think, would be the right timeframe for a withdrawal, with the possibility of slight changes."

The timing is especially "convenient", what with Marxist Obama's visit.

Could there be a few million $s and a villa in the south of France (the land of ingrates) for Mister Maliki?

This is a question for Marxsist Obama.
