BBC: Blair to announce troop pullout from Iraq

BREAKING NEWS: Prime Minister Tony Blair on Wednesday will announce a new timetable for the withdrawal of British troops from Iraq, with 1,500 to return home in several weeks, the BBC reported.

Blair will also say during his weekly appearance at the House of Commons that a total of about 3,000 British soldiers will have left southern Iraq by the end of 2007, if security there is sufficient, the British Broadcasting Corp. said Tuesday, quoting unidentified government sources.

This breaking story will be updated.

A timetable? Obviously he's emboldening the enemy!

or maybe he's got more brains than our furious leader.

No, that's not it at all. He hates America. He hates our military, and he wants the terrorists to win. He wants Iraq to fall flat so everything we've worked for is for nothing.

From MSNBC:

Blair said last month that he would report to lawmakers on his future strategy in Iraq following the completion of Operation Sinbad, a joint British and Iraqi mission targeting police corruption and militia influence in Basra.
On Sunday, Blair told the BBC that the operation was completed.
