Thanks for the heads up, Red. In this update from Reuters:

The pact replaces an expiring U.N. mandate. It gives Iraq authority over about 150,000 U.S. troops in the country, who will be obliged to withdraw from towns by mid-2009, and makes them liable for some crimes committed when they are off duty.

I hope none of our troops are faced with being tried in Iraqi courts.
