10 Iraqi Parties Demand Postponement of Elections for 6 Months
I think this is a bad idea.
First of all, any postponement will be seen as a victory for the terrorists. Which of course it is.
Second, at some point it has to be the Iraqis fighting for Iraq. There must be a purely Iraqi face leading Iraq. We are committed to winning in Iraq, but this committment cannot be absolute. We cannot do for the Iraqis what they will not or cannot do for themselves indefinitely.
We have already paid a high price in blood and treasure to secure the future of Iraq. Our resources are not infinite.
