<<So, what's the overall take on the Iraq hand-over?>>

Well...I didn't see much today because I was in and out until about 3pm. But it (the hand over) feels a bit ominous to me. First of all there are hostages being held that are going to get their heads cut off. Second, there may be more Iranians, Syrians and Saudis in Iraq (with the only intention being to cause trouble) than Iraqis. They want Saddam back....I'd say ok but only if you don't mind getting him in pieces. So we're going to hand him over - the one guy we get and watch....he'll escape now. All of the thugs in Guantanamo either have to be given lawyers or be set free. It's a F*CKING mess and what really jerks my chain is that WE are DOING IT TO OURSELVES!

First Iraqi reaction muted
June 28: There were quiet reactions on the streets of Iraq Monday to the handover. As NBC's Richard Engel reports, the Iraqi people have learned not to get their hopes up too much.
