Slideshow: Iraq Play Video Video: Iraqi Christians targeted CNN Play Video Video: Packing Up FOX News AP – A young boy watches worshippers as they attend Friday prayers in the Shiite stronghold of Sadr City, … BAGHDAD – Iraq's prime minister said in remarks aired Friday that the top U.S. commander in Iraq "risked his position" by alleging Iran was trying to bribe lawmakers to vote against the proposed security agreement with the United States.

Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki briefed top political leaders Friday about the draft agreement, which includes a timeline for U.S. withdrawal from Iraq by the end of 2011 and a compromise giving Iraq authority to try U.S. contractors and soldiers for major crimes committed off-duty and off-base.

1. Oh, is the US Occupation of Iraq still going on?
I haven't heard or read about that for a few weeks. I thought, maybe the US Troops left to go fight in Afghanistan against the Afghan people.
