Bush setting the stage for leaving Iraq?
I've been generally pessimistic about Bush getting us out of Iraq any time soon. But an article in this mornings newspaper has given me a little hope. The statement might mean nothing or it could be the prelude for the U.S. getting out sometime soon as this is the first time that he's said anything that would give us reason to believe he would leave.
Friday, January 28, 2005 BUSH VOWS TO LEAVE IF IRAQ ASKS By Elisabeth Bumiller, David E. Sanger and Richard W. Stevenson The New York Times WASHINGTON— President Bush said in an interview yesterday that he would withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq if the new government that is elected on Sunday asked him to do so, but that he expected Iraq’s first democratically elected leaders would want the United States to remain as helpers, not as occupiers. |
