It was nice he realizes the sacrifice our soldiers have made - especially with their lives and those forever scarred by serving the people of Iraq. Their service should never be forgotten by them, the American public, or the world. As I remember,there were many who said we were (and by some, still are) in Iraq for vengeful and selfish motives with the idea of a true democratic Iraq will never be realized. Funny... we don't hear much from them anymore.

Thank you President Talabani, for your thanks. I believe a few more should stand up and say the same thing!!!

Go RV!
