AMBASSADOR KHALILZAD:

I assume everyone on FR knows who Ambassador Khalizad is by this time?

And they -- and a couple of other members also raised the issue of ultimate withdrawal of the coalition forces; but not asking for a timetable, but saying that once the Iraqis are able to take care of their own security, that -- asserting the ultimate need for the coalition to withdraw.

But no one else that I recall pushed for a timetable. Even the Iranians did not call for that, an immediate timetable,...

Only the Democrats and the media are calling for a timetable!!
