"Sunni leader, 7 others slain in attack north of Baghdad" by Sameer N. Yacoub, Associated Press | October 14, 2009
BAGHDAD - Lawmakers approved the return of a limited number of British troops to Iraq to help protect the country’s southern oil ports - an area where the country is lagging in its ability to provide security.
Iraq’s parliament approved the security agreement with Britain months after the military contingent was forced to pull out because a United Nations mandate allowing British troops to legally operate in the country expired. Under the agreement in parliament yesterday, about 100 British troops would return for about a year to protect the oil sites and train Iraqi forces....
So THAT is the SAS HELL-RAISERS COVER, huh, MSM?!!!!
The deal limits British military operations in Iraq strictly to naval operations at the southern port of Umm Qasr, said Jabir Khalifa Jabir from the parliament’s oil and gas committee. Britain had about 40,000 troops in Iraq following the 2003 US-led invasion, but withdrew almost all their forces earlier this year.
At the time, the MSM and everyone sure made it seem like Britain was OUT of IRAQ, something about surge success, blah, blah.

A contingent of about 100 to 150 troops who were training Iraq’s new navy remained, but those forces were moved to Kuwait when Iraq’s parliament went on summer break without agreeing to allow the British to stay.
Lawmakers loyal to anti-US cleric Moqtada al-Sadr walked out in protest during the vote.
That's because Sadr Knows!!
The group, with about 30 legislators in the 275-member parliament, once staged bloody rebellions against US-led troops, and has strongly objected to any remaining foreign troops.
Did you swallow that hatchet with the paragraph, readers?
Always nice to know who the agenda opposes, and why.
