Senator Joe Biden on Iraq
Senator Joe Biden states that the war strategy is failing and Petraeus is wrong for warning against change. According to many of the reports, Petraeus will indicate and justify the continuing effort in Iraq. I think that he may be correct as GAO stated that the had only met a few of the goals that were setup by congress and the president. He also stated that he will continue to push for removal of troops even though there has been some security progress. Bush will have a announcement this week after Petraeus makes a comment about the war strategy and his recommendation. Biden states that he will process the removal of troops minus those to protect US civilians and fight al-Qaida. Unfortunately, i didn’t see any resolution to perhaps help the Iraqi people in his statement.
