Typical pro-terrorist reporting from the AP:

“The long, costly story of American military involvement in Iraq moved closer to an end Thursday when Iraq’s parliament approved a pact that requires all troops to be out in three years, marking the first clear timetable for a U.S. exit since the 2003 invasion that ousted Saddam Hussein.

The vote for the security deal followed months of tough talks between U.S. and Iraqi negotiators that at times seemed on the point of collapse, and then days of hardscrabble dealmaking between ethnic and sectarian groups whose centuries-old rifts had hardened during the first four years of the war.

The war has claimed more than 4,200 American lives and killed a far greater, untold number of Iraqis, consumed huge reserves of money and resources and eroded the global stature of the United States, even among its closest allies.

Now an end is in sight, and American troops could leave sooner if President-elect Barack Obama makes good on a plan to pull out combat troops within 16 months of moving into the White House in January.”

This tripe of course was co-written by Qassim Abdul-Zahra, known for his pro-terrorism reporting.

Simple fact is that this agreement shows just how much of a success the war in Iraq has been. Saddam is gone, the people are free from tryanny. They have a democratically elected government and security.

So much for that quagmire and chaos the AP had wished for all these years.
