This certainly refutes Kerry's many assertions, in the run up to the election, that the US is going it alone in Iraq.

Perhaps one of you that has been in the military can tell me why, with 130,000 troops in Iraq the US military need to move 650 Brits in to support them.

They will remain under British command BTW and will be relieved within 30 days.

So that's 30 days in which to launch an assault on Fallujah and defeat the insurgents.
