Beachman, I thought we didn't negotiate with terrorists? I mean that has been the GOP motto since Reagan, remember? Now Bush is bowing to the wishes of Malaki and Iraqi parlaiment. I mean come on dude, we're picking up Iranian diplomats and Bush doesn't have the power with the help of our marines to pick up this KNOWN terrorist?

Hey, we took out Saddam because supposedly he was part of 9/11, had wmd's and funding terrorism and al queda. Now suddenly it is up to the Iraqis to have a known terrorist in their government just because they elected him??? Come on. That is such another double standard of this administration it's pathetic..

What I'm getting at here is that Bush had no problem invading this country based on a lie of Saddam aiding al queda, wmd's and ties to 9/11. But when it comes down to actually getting rid of the terrorists who are guilty of committing acts of terrorism, Bush is doing nothing but making excuses. My god, where is OBL and Al Zarwiri? And, now he's letting the Malaki and the Iraqi government take care of it. I'm saying that it is just more proof that Bush isn't serious about capturing terrorists and he's proven it over and over again.

Because Bush once said "the enemy of your enemy is my friend, and if you fool him twice...shame on me."

Because contrary to what the libs think (and what we should actually be doing) we are not running a puppet military government. The people freely elected their parliament and this is what we have. The real problem is the that if we will ever have a democratic government in Iraq, we need to have done is World War 2 style; completely dominating our opposition and running the countries until the people understand democracy and a generation of leaders can rise who aren't a bunch of thugs. Of course, that is not politically viable and I am not even sure it would work in the Middle East.

The terrorist made the best deal with the Bush Administration, the rest of the Country wants freedom, and not Republican politics.

197% of the human beings right here on Yahoo and in us of a supported this conflict. you may now in common words detect some who will admit to that. i'm proud to assert I envisioned both wars may finally end up to be clusterphukes and that the excuses we were going to conflict grew to develop into out to be incorrect, even lies. the difficulty now, maximum of those 197% guard, considering we all started it, we pick to end it. Which proves, maximum do not comprehend nor study from the previous. Vietnam proved we may be able to no longer win a conflict that is morally incorrect and that we don't have any organisation being in. even as we are triumphing each and every conflict, we've not received the hearts and minds of those human beings and we've lost the hearts and minds of our personal human beings. that is in common words a count of time in the previous we are forced to go away Iraq, through our human beings and homes of authorities, and the insurgents that are triumphing. that is time to get out and enable them variety it out. We in common words have ourselves responsible for what has got here about from the first soldier crossing the border, to what lays of their destiny. We screwed the goose. i extremely wish human beings may get off this intense horse that our $hit would not stink. Peace Jim .

You misinterpreted or misread. The US is trying to have this guy tried but he has immunity as a member of the parliament. He was elected by Iraqis, not put there by the US. Al Maliki is leaving it up to parliament to handle the situation/have them remove his immunity. The adminstration is not at fault here, love.
ADDITION-why any of you voted thumbs down is beyond me. Perhaps you didn't read the story? Or perhaps you are plain idiots. I've been following this story since it broke a day and a half ago.
ADDITION2-what terrorist are we negotiating with? The man in question is a member of parliament in Iraq. We have brought this issue to the attention of Al Maliki and friends the fact that this guy is a terrorist. We are not negotiating with him. We want them (parliament) to get rid of his immunity so that he can return to prison/death row. What don't you get here?
