KIEV, Ukraine - President Viktor Yushchenko has signed the order for withdrawing Ukraine's troops from Iraq, the head of the country's security council said Tuesday.

Ukraine began pulling out its servicemen from Iraq last week and plans to complete the withdrawal of its 1,650 troops by the end of the year.

Security Council chief Petro Poroshenko told a news conference Tuesday that the president had signed an order making the withdrawal irreversible.

1. Ah, well, there's still Poland.

And Australia, God forgive us.

2. Don't forget Great Britain.

I have the feeling that Bu$h won't let Poland withdraw from Iraq even if they wanted to. He has too much invested in their being there. Besides that, he can actually pronounce the Polish presidents name.

3. Could we pull out next?

Iraq is just horrible. Bush is a HORRIBLE tyrant.
