Has the deputy President of Iraq hit the nail on the head. Has he said publicly what most of the British people/establishment/labour party/voters have suspected for a while.

Rightly or wrongly, the US and UK military in Iraq will be acting in lockstep when it comes to withdrawal.

Whether that is evidence of brainwashing or realpolitik is a matter of opinion, I guess. I would doubt that any commitments or assurances on a departure timetable would be given to the Iraqi PM by the UK in the absence of an agreed timetable between the US and the UK in any event.
It makes sense that if you go in together you leave together. It's not sufficient to crawl out through the back door and leaving your partner in crime to take the consequences.
I don't think Blair has been brainwashed, I think he is just impotent.

It is clear that the US leads on policy with regard to the military presence in Iraq. And where US leads, UK follows. However, when Tony the World Stateman is on his travels, he can't fob people off by saying he will have to see what his mate George thinks, so invariably he bluffs it out, leading to the Deputy President of Iraq coming away with the wrong impression of Tony's views on withdrawal.

Tony is a master at telling people what they want to hear, then doesn't deliver (nearly everything in the last 10 years for example).
Blair is a poodle, internationally, does what he's told. he brings to mind the 'Spitting Image' dolls of David Owen and David Steele, just substitute them for Bush and Blair, with Blair the tiny nonety.
We, as a nation, will do whatever Bliar tells us that we will do that Bush has ordered him to tell us what we will do
