Iraqi Parliament Approves Reciprocal Ban Against U.S. Entering Iraq
-------------------------------------------------------------------

On Monday, the Iraqi Parliament approved a reciprocal ban on U.S.
citizens entering Iraq, although it's not yet clear who the ban affects.
The U.S. has at least 5,000 soldiers in Iraq, as well as thousands more
civilian contractors. Iran's government has also vowed to take
"reciprocal measures" to ban U.S. citizens.
