I Don't Believe Iran Is A Suicide

I Don't Believe Iran Is A Suicide State.

I Think You Also Understand That One Of The Key Things That's Got To Be Done In Iraq Is To Build A Mentality Of Understanding That The Military Needs To Be Subordinate To Civilian Control And Respectful Of Its Own People.

We'll Try To Include Iraqi Officers In Our Staffs. We Will Do Everything We Can To Empower Iraqi Security Forces To Stand Up On Their Own And Operate Where They Can Alone.

But As We Move From This Period Of What Many Iraqis Regard As Perceived Occupation, We Need To Move Towards One Of Partnership.

Morale Is Good; Troops Are Confident; Leaders Are Capable.
