Iraq War: Was It Worth It?
WASHINGTON (AP) - The spokesman for U.S. forces in Iraq says
Iraqi police and military are up to the task of keeping the country
secure after U.S. troops end their combat mission next week.
Maj. Gen. Stephen Lanza adds that the sooner the Iraqi
government is seated, the calmer the country will be.
Lanza told CBS' "The Early Show" that Iraqi security forces
have shown professionalism and the will to improve and have made
strong progress since 2003.
Lanza said that fewer than 6,000 U.S. troops are set to leave
Iraq by the Aug. 31 deadline set by President Barack Obama as part
of an end to all unilateral combat missions.
The 50,000 U.S. troops that will remain in Iraq will focus on
training Iraqi security forces.
