U.S. troops possibly redeployed in Iraq: reports
BAGHDAD, Nov. 25 (Xinhua) -- Iraqi media has recently circulated unofficial reports about the possible redeployment of units of U.S. soldiers in Iraq over fears that the Syrian crisis could spill over into Iraq.
. . . the private Independent Press Agency (IPA) quoted "a well-informed source" as saying that "Dozens of giant U.S. airplanes C-130 Hercules had carried out successive flights to the once second largest U.S. military airbase al-Aasad in Iraq's western province of Anbar."

However, Ali al-Mussawi, an advisor to Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, denied such reports, saying that such U.S. military deployment will need an approval by the parliament.
"These reports are completely untrue because Iraq has a parliamentary political system, in which such things can not occur without official legislative and governmental approvals," Mussawi said, adding that "Such things can not be done in secret without announcement.
can you refute the statement from the Prime Minister or not ?
