Google News - BAGHDAD, (AP) -- Foreign ministry officials say Iraq will ask the U.N. Security Council to extend the mandate of 160,000-strong U.S.-led multinational force in Iraq for only one more year.

The officials said Iraq -- after 2008 -- would then seek a long-term, bilateral security agreement with the United States like the ones Washington has with other nations.

Aides to Iraq's foreign minister say the mandate extension for the U.S.-led forces in Iraq, due to be discussed at the end of this year, would be "the last extension for these forces."

A 2004 resolution adopted unanimously by the Security Council says the U.S.-led multinational force would remain in Iraq at the request of the interim government.

Almotamar Net - Doctors use the word “crisis” to describe the point at which a patient either starts to recover or dies. President George W. Bush’s Iraqi patient now seems to have reached that point. Most commentators appear to think that Bush’s latest prescription – a surge of 20,000 additional troops to suppress the militias in Baghdad – will, at best, merely postpone the inevitable death of his dream of a democratic Iraq. Yet as “Battle of Baghdad” begins, factors beyond Bush’s control and not of his making (at least not intentionally) may just save Iraq from its doom.
