[QUOTE]Originally posted by TheWoozle: [QB] [QUOTE] [QUOTE]WASHINGTON - President Bush said Saturday he is encouraged by the increasing size and capability of the Iraqi security forces, touting progress on a key measure for when U.S. troops can come home.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE]The number of Iraqi army battalions that can fight insurgents without U.S. and coalition help has dropped from three to one, top U.S. generals told Congress yesterday, adding that the security situation in Iraq is too uncertain to predict large-scale American troop withdrawals anytime soon.[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]Apparently, the clarification is that while the overall quality of the Iraqi army is doubtful, there is a single battalion that can work without being under the American thumb. What's more troubling is the fact that they're starting to make noises that Iran is the source of some terrorist support, with evidence. Second-hand evidence, but Bush didn't even need that to destabilize Iraq. [/QB][/QUOTE]
