Documents Reveal Secret Talks Between U.S. and Armed Iraqi Resistance
<snip> Failures on the battlefield and in the recent American elections are propelling the Bush Administration to consider significant changes in Iraq policy.

On November 21 on the Huffington Post, I revealed that American officials have contacted Sunni nationalist insurgents to explore a cease-fire and even the possible replacement of the al-Maliki government with an interim one. This plan would reduce US casualties against the Sunni-led insurgency.

George H.W.Bush and Cheney are in talks right now with Saudi oil royalty.

3. THIS is why Biden, Levin & Clark are saying, "No timetables"
Neither the Pentagon nor the realists are committed to bringing American troops home in the near future. Instead, they seek to reduce American casualties, check the influence of Iran, and redeploy US troops to permanent bases.

OUT NOW!
OUT NOW!
OUT NOW!
OUT NOW!

ABANDON THE BASES!

OUT NOW!
OUT NOW!
OUT NOW!
OUT NOW!

This I like: "An even more realistic position, though not yet an acceptable one, is that of former CIA director John Deutch, calling for an American troop withdrawal combined with a diplomatic initiative to Iran, seeking non-intervention by Teheran in exchange for the US leaving."
