This morning even the BBC was touting this story as 'a breakthrough' in Iraq's oil dispute. That story has now disappeared from their site. It didn't even mention western involvement in the draft law.

That's why it was 'under the radar' , Larson. Many , no doubt of similar mindset to yourself, were hoping that western involvement wouldn't become an issue.

Now it has. Sorry about that. Lol.


And the puppet regime is not 'democratically' elected, Larson. The wartime election was a sham.
