Iraqi National Assembly Approves SOFA
I was worried that the Status of Forces Agreement would not pass and we'd be in a world of hurt. Fortunately it did pass. Glad I was wrong.
Iraq's Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki on Thursday finally got the broad consensus he sought on the Status of Forces Agreement with the U.S. — 149 of the 198 lawmakers present in the 275-member National Assembly gave their support to a deal that allows American forces to remain in Iraq until the end of 2011.
