Iraq President Says We Should Stay In Iraq For Another Year Or Two

     Iraq's president,Jalal Talabani, on Friday told the students at the   University of Cambridge that Iraq was safer because of Saddam Hussein's removal and that many of the Iraqi citizens were living normal lives.

    He also said that the United States and British troops need to stay in Iraq for a couple of years to stem the flow of blood in the country.

Jalal Talabani: "I think within one or two years, we will be able to recruit our forces and prepare our armed forces and tell goodbye to our friends."

 On the U.S. Congress and the war funding bill, he said this: "We are concerned. We hope that Congress will review this decision and help the American army to stay until the Iraqi army will be able to replace them and to protect the security of Iraq."

"We are planning to show some tangible achievements to the Congress that we are going forward for national reconciliation, for national unity, for fighting terrorism and achieving peace and security in our country."

   Sorry President Talabani, but your comments are worthless since they sound more like a script handed to you from Cheney and Bush. I see that they have the Iraqi government now using the Republican talking points manual to get the Americans into backing this Bush bullshit, which isn't going to work.

  I think that we have had more than enough of our citizens getting killed for an Iraqi government that wishes to take a two month vacation in the midst of all of this crap. I think that we have had enough of our president using our tax dollars to pay off all of his loyal " bushies " and business friends in order to profit from this so called war.

    You sir, do not have years. You have until NOW!

   Whoever thought that you would hear of such a thing as an Iraqi Republican?
