| Bush comments on Zarqawi demise, US troop levels |
| 2006-06-10 |
| President Bush said Friday the elimination of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi "helps a lot" with security problems in Iraq but won't bring an end to the war. He also said it was unclear when Iraqi security forces could take control and let U.S. troops go home. Bush declined to embrace the goal set by the new prime minister for Iraqi forces to take responsibility for security throughout the country within 18 months. "We'll get a realistic appraisal about the capacity for standing up Iraqi troops as this new government begins to function as a government," the president said. |
