US President George W Bush has given the Prime Minister a detailed briefing on his latest plan for Iraq.

President Bush rang John Howard this morning and the two leaders spoke for about 20 minutes.

President Bush said he had already had a conversation with the Iraqi Prime Minister about the new plan, and gave Mr Howard an assessment of the current situation in Iraq.

The US President is expected to outline an increase of 20,000 troops as part of his new Iraq strategy which will be revealed tomorrow.

Apec opens

In his first day in the capital of a country that was America's wartime enemy during his youth, President Bush said today that the American experience in Vietnam contained lessons for the war in Iraq. Chief among them, he said, was that "we succeed unless we quit".

"We tend to want there to be instant success in the world," Mr. Bush said after a lunch with Prime Minister John Howard of Australia, "and the task in Iraq is going to take a while."

Democrats Rule: Control of Congress won after Republicans concede

Submitted by Visitor on Thu, 2006-11-09 17:54

Senator George Allen of Virginia conceded today that he lost to the Democratic challenger, Jim Webb, ending the last undecided Senate contest and giving Democrats control of the full Congress for the first time in a dozen years.

Shortly afterward, Mr. Webb told his supporters that he and Mr. Allen had had “a good discussion,” and that the defeated senator’s private concession remarks had been “very gracious.” The two will confer over lunch next week, Mr. Webb said.

The triumph in Virginia effectively gives Democrats 51 seats in the Senate. (Representative Bernard Sanders, the senator-elect from Vermont, is an independent who caucuses with the Democrats, and Senator Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut is a Democrat, although he ran for re-election as an independent after losing in the primary.)
