The US Military Returns to Iraq
From the New York Times – go to paragraph 15 on page 2:
Despite the highly publicized withdrawal of US troops last December, recently a unit of Special Operations soldiers was quietly deployed to Iraq to “advise on counter terrorism and help with intelligence.” Meanwhile Iraq and the United States are negotiating an agreement that could result in the redeployment of small units of American Special Operation forces on “training missions.”
In other words Obama, the anti-war president who won the Nobel Peace prize, hasn’t managed to end US involvement in Iraq or Afghanistan. It’s obvious the Times is trying to kill the story by burying it at the end of an article about Syria. I wonder why?
