Been away from the puter for a while, found this interesting tidbit on yahoo news:

UNITED NATIONS - The
U.N. Security Council News News Photos Images Web U.N. Security Council voted unanimously Tuesday to extend the mandate of the nearly 180,000-strong multinational force in
Iraq News News Photos Images Web Iraq for a year, a move the United States called a significant signal of international commitment to Iraq's political transition.
The resolution, which was co-sponsored by the United States, Britain, Denmark, Japan and Romania, was adopted in response to a request from Iraqi Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari for the U.S.-led force to remain in the country.
The current mandate authorizing the presence of the force expires on Dec. 31, about two weeks after parliamentary elections in Iraq — the end point of the political process as defined by the Security Council.
The resolution extends the force's mandate until Dec. 31, 2006, with a review after eight months. Under its terms, the council will "terminate this mandate earlier if requested by the government of Iraq."
