So, now the status of forces agreement goes to the Iraqi Parliament.

Changes demanded by the Iraqi government and accepted by Bush and His Evil Minions^™:

• Requiring the U.S. to get Iraqi consent before searching homes.
• Giving Iraqis authority over the international zone that houses the centers of American power in Baghdad.
• Enabling Iraqis to search U.S. cargo.
• Prohibiting Americans from conducting raids in other countries from Iraqi soil.
• Eliminating the judicial immunity that applies to foreign contractors and to a lesser degree that of U.S. soldiers working in Iraq under the occupation’s current mandate.
• A time line for leaving the country.

Basically, the Iraqis knew that Bush had to have this agreement, and so demanded, and got what they wanted.
