MCCAIN BEGINS TRIP WITH SURPRISE VISIT TO IRAQ!

HE DAH MAN! BBC:
US Senator John McCain has landed in Baghdad ahead of an unannounced visit to the Iraqi capital.

Mr McCain - set to be the Republican's presidential candidate in November - will meet with US and Iraqi officials during his trip.

Mr McCain is also scheduled to visit London, Paris and Israel this week. The senator is known for his strong support of current US policy in Iraq, and was one of the most prominent proponents of the "surge" strategy.

This will be Mr McCain's eighth visit to the country since the US-led invasion began in 2003.

He is scheduled to hold meetings with Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister Barham Saleh and Gen David Petraeus, the commander of US troops in Iraq.
