The squeeze is on

And Tiny Tony Blair looks like he will be the toothpaste. The Times of London is reporting a British pullout much sooner than Our Dear Embattled Leader would ever want. We can only presune that this is a condition of his maintaining his political support in Parliament.
Britain and Iraq announced an accelerated timetable for the withdrawal of foreign troops from much of Iraq today during a surprise visit by Tony Blair to show his support for the country's new government.

Britain could return two southern provinces to Iraqi security control within in a few months. Nouri al-Maliki, Iraq's new Prime Minister, said that he expected as many as 16 of the 18 provinces to be "Iraqi-ised" - under the control of Iraqi forces - by the end of this year.
ODEL knows he can't act this quickly. God has told him to wait until Halliburton has milked every last dollar out of the Iraq appropriations. And so he must pushback on Tiny Tony's pusillanimous cut and run. And Tiny Tony has nowhere safe to go with this.

If someone in this country will report it, this could be fun to watch.
