					<description>:arrow: Article - Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki said this week that they had agreed there would be no foreign forces in Iraq after 2011, setting a timeline for a US withdrawal.

The White House has repeatedly said no deal has been finalized.
............................................

There's a lot of Iraqi Politicians who want foreign troops out of there so they can start stealing oil money.

They can't now (well, not a lot) because the Iraqi Auditors and Accountants are provided security by U.S. troops and they can't be bribed or extorted to allow big time corruption.

These same Politicians don't want the Iraqi Army becoming to strong and or Professional because Army Officers will need to be bribed or extorted as well.

Corruption in the Arab world is damn near a genetic instinct.

The only plus might be that the Iranian Mullah's seemed to have adopted it and brought to Iran.

					<description>"Iraqi Shiite leader Moqtada al-Sadr on Thursday ordered a halt to armed operations by his 60,000-strong Mahdi Army militia."

It ain't gonna happen.  The U.S. military got too close to him and he's regrouping.  He's trying to save his ass.</description>

					<description>"He did not immediately give reasons for his decision "

The media is freekin retarded and can't think past tomorrow.  Sadr is telling his men to stop the fight because he wants the election ban lifted on his party.  Maliki had banned Sadr's crew from the election (October possibly November) that is going to elect the LOCAL political leadership.  

If Sadr's boys cannot get in he will have to come a beggin to the other clicks for "protection".     

The question is what will Maliki do?  If he waives to pressure and lets Sadr's crew run they will win enough seats to get themselves a safe haven to rebuild in.  Maliki's best move would be to just say since this is Sadr's 10th freekin cease fire BS ACTIONS not words will be the only thing recognized.  He should add and NO areas were we have brought peace by killing all your people will not count.</description>
