Iraqi lawmakers approve ministers

Iraqi Parliament appointed 8 new ministers to the cabinet, though key spots remain empty. These appointed ministers are to oversee electricity, trade, and municipalities. Also the first female minister was appointed to oversee Woman's Affairs. The key spots that remain empty are defense, interior and national security. After all this commotion, demonstrators have took to the streets in outrage. At the end of 2011, the United states has agreed to remove all troops out of Iraq, though the United States might petition to keep a few troops in Iraq to keep an eye on the newly developed government.
