Trump says we need a couple Billion to pull out, for the infrastructure we have built. He will get it back eitherway.

Smoked him out with the fake letter.
Interesting possibility. Apropos of nothing, revenge is a dish best served cold, but with a side order of hot lead.

The letter was a DRAFT that was pre-written JUST IN CASE the resolution to expel US troops becomes law.
As it stands now, the resolution IS NON-BINDING.
1) It was voted on by a half-empty parliament with no participation from Sunnis and Kurds.
2) The Prime Minister had not signed it.

Article at Fox says it was published five hours ago. That is several hours before the letter was even leaked. Also, the letter was leaked in Iraq to Baghdad reporters.
It doesn’t look like he’s the leaker.

Right. If he was fired I see no reason for them to lie and say his departure was expected. Three years is a long time in one of those jobs.
To: kristinn
That letter, in my opinion, has too many beneficial aspects that Trump can use to have been leaked maliciously.
