Iraqi Gov't reaches another US set benchmark

It would seem that those who thought the Iraqi Gov't was not trying to unite the people of Iraq might wanna rethink their thoughts. New legislation was passed on Saturday that will allow members of the Baath Party to go back to the jobs they had lost during the so-called de-Baathification that went on in Iraq after Saddam was captured. Tens of thousands of people who thru connections with the Baath Party lost their jobs when the newly formed Iraqi Gov't began to dismiss anyone related to the Party that had control of Iraq during Saddam's years of leadership.
But this legislation will not simply allow all those connected to the Baath Party gain the jobs and positions they lost. The legislation will allow lower ranking members with little or no criminal backgrounds to get their jobs back and those with high-ranking positions will be sent to compulsory retirement . The bill was approved unanimously and was titled the Accountability and Justice law. They hope this will relieve some of the tension that has cause the insurgency in the country.
It has taken some time, and many mistakes were made. But it would seem that more and more progress continues to come out of Iraq. Not that many people care, right?
