From The Washington Post, 7/11/03: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2003Jul10.html Bush Acknowledges Troops Face Danger By Dana Milbank Washington Post Staff Writer Friday, July 11, 2003; Page A11 GABORONE, Botswana -- President Bush said today that U.S. occupation forces in Iraq face a security problem, upgrading his public assessment of the threat as American deaths continued to rise. "There's no question we've got a security issue in Iraq," Bush said during meetings with Botswana's president, Festus Mogae, on the third stop of a five-country tour of sub-Saharan Africa. "And we're going to have to deal with it person by person. We're going to have to remain tough." The president's words were a departure from the defiant challenge he made to Iraqi militants on July 2. "Bring 'em on," Bush said then of the people attacking U.S. troops in Iraq, adding, "We've got plenty tough force there right now to make sure the situation is secure." __________________________________________________ ___ "And we're going to have to deal with it person by person." Whatever the hell that means. Now ya gotta admit the kid's really smart. I ask ya, what other presidunce could've possibly guessed that the troops face danger. Harry |

Bush asked *old Europe* providing troops in order performing some *clean-up" work...for the mess, deliberately created. Among the countries..Germany and France who would indeed be in a position to provide troops...and *also financial support*. Positive answers...will require *UN specific mandate*... BTW: When are the Polish troops moving in ?
