BAGHDAD, Iraq - President Jalal Talabani said Thursday that he had been assured by Democrat congressional leaders during a recent visit to Washington that they had no plans for a quick withdrawal of U.S. forces.
Talabani, a Kurd whose post is ceremonial, said Democrats also backed the idea of placing U.S. troops in bases while putting Iraqis in charge of security in and around cities.
“They all told me that they want the success of Iraq’s democratically elected government and continued support for the Iraqi people to defeat terrorism,” Talabani said about his trip to the United States in late September as many were predicting the Democratic congressional triumph in Tuesday’s midterm elections.
“One of them (a Democrat leader) told me that any early withdrawal will be a catastrophe for the United States and the world,” Talabani, speaking from his northern hometown of Sulaimaniyah, told the Dubai-based Al-Jazeera satellite broadcaster.
Asked whether the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld meant a collapse of the Bush administration’s policy in Iraq, Talabani said, “I know George Bush as a clear and strong man who does not bow down to blackmail.”
The “Americans made big mistakes in Iraq,” he said, including the rejection of its leaders hopes to form an interim Iraqi government immediately after the March 2003 invasion rather than occupying the country for more than a year.
Speaking about foreign fighters who are known to play a major role in the insurgency that killed thousands of Iraqis as well as U.S. troops, Talabani said the country was subject to a “foreign invasion.”
He said thousands of non-Iraqi fighters had been killed. Al-Qaida in Iraq leader Abu Ayyub al-Masri, also known as Abu Hamza al-Muhajir, recently acknowledged that more than 4,000 fighters from his group have been killed.
“We are being subjected to a foreign invasion, and we don’t have enough forces to fight this invasion,” Talabani said, suggesting that U.S. troops need to stay.
The Iraqi government and U.S. officials accuse Syria of allowing foreign fighters to cross into Iraq, a claim that Iraq’s western neighbor denies, claiming it is impossible to control the long desert border.
“All Arab countries have terrorists in our country, hundreds each, and also there are others from Muslim countries too,” Talabani said.
He added that “200 fighters used to enter the country every day and now it is about 30 a day.”
Sounds like the same thing they (dims) blasted the Republicans for and used against them to win the election. Can you say *two-faced*?
I wonder if the Iraqi leader is familiar with the story of Pinocchio. Well, if not, he will be soon...
And they should believe the Dem's
/sarc
If that were true, then the number of Democrats in the country would be shrinking so to speak.
They will, however, have the decency to offer Iraq a reacharound.
Oh, and guess what, Iraq? The Dems won't call you tomorrow, either, and you'll keep getting their message machine.
But did the democRATs fly to Bahgdad in an SR-71 on the eve of the election to convince Talibani to support a democRAT takeover.
Talabani needs to learn fast - THE DEMS LIE.
*snickering*
I guess the new Democrat majority figures that the country doesn't have a President and they're the supreme commanders of everything. IMO, the new Republican minority can play the same dirty games the creeps played for the past six years. Turn about is fair play as they say. It's payback time in the good ole cesspool of Congress. That's assuming the GOP can find their manhood so to speak. I know that's questionable when it comes to McCain and company.
"We will not pull out too quickly. And that's exactly the same thing I told my wife, Morgan Fairchild. Yeah, that's the ticket!"
I live in PA and we really took a big turn for the worse in general. Automaton Casey is all programmed and standing by awaiting his commands from the DNC.
Let's see, the Dems initiate all their plans.
1. They split the country into three parts - Biden
2. They pull out ASAP to Okinawa - Murtha
3. They encourage the locals to get more involved.
3a. Syria, Jordan and Saudi Arabia move to help the Sunnis.
3b. Iran moves in to help the Shites.
3c. Turkey moves in to crush the Kurds.
4. Blame Bush!!!
yeah.

Saaaaaaay...call those Diebold people!
Does Realtor.com list property for sale in Okinawa? Betcha there won't be a housing slowdown over there!
They're already saying they will pull back to the bases, and let the Iraqis do the work. Like bill clinton, who bombed civilian targets in Yugoslavia from 20,000 feet, causing many innocent deaths, they will not want to risk casualties. But there's no way to do the job without some casualties. So either they will huddle on the bases, an empty symbol of staying there, or they will be pulled out.
Maybe all it will make to force them out will be a Kobar Towers incident, which we will likely get if we leave the terrorists free to run around the country basically unopposed.
I wonder if Kerry ever thinks about all those millions who stood by us who died because of people like him.
That's what I've been saying, the Dems lie and placate their constituency to get votes. U.S. foreign policy will not dramatically change under the Democrats, they will rope-a-dope and talk about a different "strategy", and the MSM will spin the war differently to help out the Dems PR campaign, but really, nothing will substantially change from what the Republicans have been doing.
Not to sound totally cynical, but sometimes it looks like the only thing that really changes is that the money just switches from one side of the aisle to the other.
