“that they wouldn’t be hauled before an Iraqi judicial system.”

Actually, I do recall that as being a very big, contentious issue. But Obola should have played it with a heavy hand, instead of just giving up. He’s weak.

Obama had no leverage and no justification to use a "heavy hand" in the matter. The U.S. government cannot pretend Iraq is a sovereign nation on one hand, then turn around and act like it still needs an occupying military force.

The end result is that Iraq has turned into the sh!t-hole that it was always destined to be. Our national disgrace is that we didn't need to piss away thousands of American lives and hundreds of billions of American dollars to get it there.
