Iraqi President Leaves Jordan Hospital
By SHAFIKA MATTAR 03.14.07, 5:23 AM ET

Iraqi President Jalal Talabani left a Jordanian hospital Wednesday
to fly back to Baghdad.

Talabani was admitted to the hospital in Amman on Feb. 25, hours
after he collapsed in northern Iraq from what was diagnosed as
exhaustion and dehydration caused by lung and sinus infections.

Talabani fell ill in his hometown, Sulaimaniyah, and was unconscious
when rushed to the local hospital. But he recovered enough to be
flown to neighboring Jordan the same night.

The Iraqi ambassador to Jordan, Saad al-Hayyani, said Tuesday that
the president would return directly to Iraq on leaving the hospital.

1. Hmmmm, I thought that Iraq had hospitals and medical care? Maybe

I'm wrong though. They've lost everything else, I suppose good medical care went out the window (or up in smoke) like everything else.
