According to an overseas newspaper, "The Independent," The U.S. is currently negotiating a secret deal that will allow its army to perpetually occupy Iraq. This "secret deal" is alleged to be so iron-clad, that the incoming President will not be able to alter it. If "The Independent's" sources are correct, this issue will also be a moot point in the upcoming Presidential debates because George Bush is supposedly going to push this deal through within the next four weeks. Doing so will allow the current President to declare a victory in the ongoing "war on terror." [SIDEBAR: Pyrrhic victory though it may be].The deal will allegedly allow U.S troops in Iraq to: "occupy permanent bases, conduct military operations, arrest Iraqis and enjoy immunity from Iraqi law." I'm not sure if this is real or conjecture. However, if this is true- the moral, karmic, and financial repercussions of such a move will be devastating.
