I’ll be surprised if this complex is ever occupied. Building a new embassy in Baghdad today is like building a new embassy in Saigon in 1973.

“”I can’t tell you when the embassy is going to open,” said McCormack. “We don’t have an answer.””

Never, I hope. Give it to the Iraqis for a ministry. As an embassy it is a monstrosity, a symbol of the moneyed corruption of the “reconstruction”

Next time, build an embassy not the palace of the viceroy!

Nah we will have to stay in Iraq for decades to come. Even the future President Hillary Clintn is not insane enough to leave Iraq.
