Do you believe the Iraqis have accepted this plan as their own and not simply an American plan?
I believe you have the depth of knowledge and experience to lead us through these very difficult times to some conclusion on our mission and our transition to a new mission in Iraq.
the real way to win in Iraq and Afghanistan... is through human bonds and relationships that can be developed with our troops on the ground.
We want to see an Iraq in which the government, through its established and regulated police and army, maintains a monopoly on the possession and use of organized armed force.
