Patience is important weapon in the war in Iraq
06/05/200706 / 05 / 2007

(Reuters) - After weary continuing losses and few signs of concrete progress in the war against Iraq began patience of the American people is running out of patience and weapon seems to discount the United States possessed in abundance .. This reflected impatience of the war against Iraq which entered its fifth year on half term elections, due in November, Congress in November, where the Republicans from the party of President George Bush to control the two houses of Congress to Democrats. Since that time, Bush appointed new ministers of defense and commander of the army in the new Iraq and become tasked with the implementation of a new strategy there.

But despite the fact that Bush has repeatedly called for his patience in a time when more troops to Iraq to implement the new strategy shows the results of opinion polls that pessimism is growing and that most Americans prefer to set a timetable for withdrawing its forces from Iraq.

Said Anthony Cordesman, an expert Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, "The question now is ... Whether the United States have the patience to implement at least its current and accept the fact that any hope of success must be measured by years of American actions and not through months. "

According to the Bush plan is to send 28 thousand additional troops to provide security for Baghdad using methods provided in a new work program for the war against gunmen.

When the American army and the Marines in the preparation of a handbook to fight armed crimes, the first two decades since the initial draft said that success requires a "maximum patience" The final version, which was published in December in December recommended exercise patience "substantial."

Judging from the fundamentalist Islamic sites on the Internet, the weapon was abundant patience with opponents of the United States. The gunmen make sure that they can not rely on a final number seems recruits.

He wrote retired General Barry McCaffrey in a memorandum to the leaders of the American army after a visit to Iraq in the spring "Although ... We killed a large number of enemy fighters (perhaps more than 20 thousand), the armed militias and Al-Qaida in Iraq apparently begun forming leaders and soldiers.

"Numbers and the dangers they pose is not diminished at the time being subjected to such losses in the battles."

In the first of May Bush used the veto (veto) against the bill passed by the American Congress, led by Democrats, which will link the financing of military size 124 billion dollars to a timetable for withdrawing its forces from Iraq, which Bush considers it a recipe for defeat.

."Bush said "all with the terrorists do is ... Increased strength and start planning for how to overthrow the government and control over Iraq. "

He got the bill, which was rejected Bush's support of four Republicans, but some experts say it is only a matter of time before others follow suit under pressure from their constituencies.

Lawrence speculated Corp assistant, former Minister of Defense and now the security expert at the Center for American Progress that "even the Republicans run out of patience next year."

There is historical precedent for the way in which the results changed by opinion polls since the American invasion of Iraq in 2003 In the first two years of the war against Vietnam and Korea war against the results of opinion polls supporting high then began declining steadily in the absence of rapid progress.

Avoid General David Petros who was responsible for rewriting booklet crimes against the gunmen, who became commander of the American army in Iraq in January in January was no estimate of the timing of the American forces in Iraq.

But he said in a television interview that "the hour Washington began moving more quickly than an hour of Baghdad."

Petros watch and control on September where will formally evaluate how successful the additional troops sent to Iraq in the security operation.

There has been little change in the overall level of bloodshed since the start of the new Bush strategy. The number of American forces killed between 3352 dead in the beginning of May estimated the number of victims of Iraqi civilians between 63 thousand and less than 69 thousand.
