Blair will announce redeployment of British troops from Iraq

Tomorrow, the British Prime Minister will announce a timetable for the withdrawal of troops from Iraq.  BBC:

Prime Minister Tony Blair is expected to announce a timetable for the withdrawal of UK troops from Iraq.

Mr Blair is due to make a statement about the 7,000 British troops serving in Iraq at the Commons on Wednesday.

The BBC's James Landale said 1,500 troops were expected to return home in months, rising to 3,000 by Christmas. 

Wait a second.  So Blair wants to withdraw troops, and he wants a timetable.  I can't wait to hear what John Howard has to say about this.
