Iraq calls on US to set pullouty timetable

[mburbank]

Okay, aside from all the jokes about 'pullout'...


I'm confused. Isn't Iraq a sovereign nation now? Wouldn't it be more appropriatte for them to set a timetable for foreign troops to leave? I mean, if we were still occupying an occupying power with occupiers responsabilities... but isn't the official line that we're not?
