Better late than never

Been meaning to comment on this:

Perle Cites Errors in Iraq, Urges Power Transfer

“Of course, we haven’t done everything right,” said Perle, according to the French text of the interview. “Mistakes have been made and there will be others.

“Today, the answer is to hand over power to the Iraqis as soon as possible,” he added.

Some people seem to be taking the second quote as we’re about to abandon Iraq. I don’t really think it’s a change at all. They’ve always stated that they wanted to hand over Iraq to the people quickly. I don’t think it’s that interesting. The admiting of mistakes is kind of new, but that could be taken as pandering to a foreign crowd (what!? I though only celebs did that!). Seems like an uneventful interview to me.
