Britain Exits Iraq

Tony Blair announced his Iraq exit strategy saying that the present British troops will be withdrawn from the area of conflict. He stressed that Iraq would have to come to rely on itself for its own security.

General Sir Richard Dannatt, the Chief of the General Staff. said "get ourselves out sometime soon because our presence exacerbates the security problems. We are in a Muslim country, and Muslims' views of foreigners in their country are quite clear."

In contrast President Bush of the United States wants to send more troops to Iraq. I wonder what history will say. My prediction is that Iran will be attacked soon by US forces. Tony wants to get out while he still can.
