Brits getting out of the Iraqi quagmire?

Looks like it. They're also showing signs of exasperation with the Bush administration. From the same article - UK Defence Secretary, John Reid:

"If we had an open-ended presence there, and were never envisaging that the Iraqis could take control of their own country, we would be rightly criticised for long-term imperialist ambitions"

A couple of subtle digs at the Bush administration, perhaps?

About me

  • An early-thirties male Irish technologist living and working in Dublin, I'm a former (recovering) member of both Fianna Fáil and the Roman Catholic Church.

    I'm not a member of any political party these days, but my opinions can be broadly categorised as 'lefty' and republican. I am also a former member of the Irish Defence Forces.

    Please feel free to check out the FI Fie Foe Fum group blog, where I was once a regular contributor, and the Cedar Lounge Revolution, where I can usually be found in the comments.
