Iraq's Chalabi, who sought invasion, now wants U.S. out

Thank you, McClatchy, for continuing to cover Iraq. Remember, since combat operations in Iraq have been declared over there have been 36 U.S. servicemembers killed.

Also, thanks for nothing, Mr. Chalabi, for lying to us in 2002-2003 and helping us decide to invade Iraq in 2003.

Here is a quote from the article:
Still, there is, if nothing else, an irony in Chalabi's avowed opposition to asking the Americans to stay longer. It was Chalabi's Iraqi National Congress that provided much of the false information, including allegations that Saddam was developing weapons of mass destruction and had ties to al Qaida, that the Bush administration used to justify the 2003 invasion. Nearly all of the information the INC provided turned out to be untrue.
