I disagreed
with the Bush Administration’s decision to pursue this
unnecessary war in Iraq. But we are there now, and we cannot
simply walk away. To do so would be an insult to the brave men
and women who have served there and their families, especially
those who have been injured and killed serving their country.
While I am
pleased that President Bush has taken the first steps to involve
the United Nations and NATO in the stabilization and rebuilding
of Iraq, he needs to do more. The task ahead requires that the
United States work with the international community as full
partners to stabilize Iraq. Only when order and security are
restored will the Iraqi people be able to decide the future of
their country. Only then will we be able to bring our troops
home with the hope that Iraq will not descend into civil war.
Unfortunately, we have a long way to go. Please be assured that
I will continue to monitor the situation in Iraq closely, and do
all I can to ensure that our troops have all they need to
accomplish their mission and come home safely.
