SelectPlusAP Top StoriesAP Top StoriesThe Associated PressHere's the latest news for Sunday July 20: Obama breakfasts with troops in Kabul; Iraqi prime minister supports U.S. withdrawal; Tropical Storm Cristobal brings rain to North Carolina; Pope says Mass in Australia.This is A-P NewsMinute.Presidential candidate Barack Obama has begun his overseas trip in Afghanistan where he enjoyed breakfast this morning with troops in Kabul. After the meal and a chance for some photos, he was meeting with President Hamid Karzai. Obama has been saying the U.S. military needs to focus its attention on the fight against terrorism and pull out of Iraq.The prime minister of Iraq is quoted as saying Barack Obama's timeline to pull U.S. troops out of Iraq sounds good to him. Nouri al-Maliki says the 16 month withdrawal window should give his country enough time to be able to provide its own security. A spokesman for al-Maliki's office says his comments to a German magazine were misunderstood and security concerns should dictate the timeline.Parts of North Carolina are getting some well-needed rain. Tropical Storm Cristobal is dumping up to five inches of rain on the state. The national hurricane center says Cristobal is running basically parallel to the coast and is expected to gain strength in the next day or two.The Pope has wrapped up his last full day in Australia with a Mass to more than 300,000 people. Before the Mass, Pope Benedict took in an aerial tour of Sydney in a chopper that is being called his "holy-copter."___ ___, The Associated Press with AP NewsMinute

i don't think obama will pull out the entire u.s forces from iraq, rather in numerous article he mentions about pulling some not all, which has angered his liberal base, the peace and love wing. obama knows pulling out entirely is suicide in term of military thinking and never voted against militay spending in his senate career.
pulling out the troops is a stupid idea! obama will not get elected,we need to send more troops to iraq and afghanistan, and then take out iran next!!!
Misunderstood? I don't think so. His 'spokesman' is an employee of the US Army and the message saying he was 'misunderstood' came from Centcom, not from the Prime Minister's office. I smell a rat, and AP is little more than a stenographer for AWOL Bush's corrupt government.
