Iraqis don't need us ---Maliki

Iraqis ready to manage own security: PM - World - smh.com.au:

Mr Maliki admitted on Saturday that he wanted his army and police to have more US-backed training, but he insisted Iraqi forces could deal adequately with an abrupt American pullout. "We say with confidence that we are capable, God willing, of taking full responsibility for the security file if the international forces withdraw in any time they wish."

So what's the holdup? Let's get out! Republicans want to filibuster? I say let 'em!
