Succeeding in Iraq also requires defending its territorial integrity – and stabilizing the region in the face of the extremist challenge. This begins with addressing Iran and Syria. These two regimes are allowing terrorists and insurgents to use their territory to move in and out of Iraq. Iran is providing material support for attacks on American troops. We will disrupt the attacks on our forces. We will interrupt the flow of support from Iran and Syria. And we will seek out and destroy the networks providing advanced weaponry and training to our enemies in Iraq.
That is indeed the greatest news and it is excellent news.
Sounded like good news to me. It is time to now show the world why we took Iraq in the first place. Bush has two years to complete the final phase of the war.
Yep. Change in focus and intent.
I agree. A somber President made that statement, multiple times warning of difficulties ahead.
I would also hate to be an al Qaeda dead ender in Anbar province right about now. Time's up.
