Democrats push through vote for troop pullout from Iraq« Thread Started on Mar 24, 2007, 5:52pm » --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Democrats push through vote for troop pullout from IraqTom Baldwin and Anna Stroman, Washington read at source> http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/w ... 364.eceThe US House of Representatives defied the threat of a veto from President Bush today by passing binding legislation requiring the withdrawal of all American combat troops from Iraq by August 31, 2008. At the end of a bitterly-contested debate, the House voted by a narrow 218-212 margin to pass a $122 billion war funding Bill on the condition that US combat operations ceased before next September - or even earlier if the Iraqi government fails to meet benchmarks such as improving security.
