Iraq Legislature Vote May End US Occupation
The Iraqi Parliament has passed a binding resolution that will guarantee lawmakers an opportunity to block the extension of the UN mandate under which coalition troops now remain in Iraq when it comes up for renewal in December. Without the cover of the UN mandate, the continued presence of coalition troops in Iraq would become an armed occupation, at which point it would no longer be politically tenable to support it.
