The United States Is The Most Powerful

It's Clear To Me Now That We've Got To Reach Out To The Arab Sunni Community In Particular In An Effort To Cause Some Moderate Political Activity To Take Place So They Join The Future Of Iraq.

But The Key Shift In Focus Will Be From Counter-insurgency Operations To More And More Cooperation With Iraqi Security Forces And To Building Iraqi Security Capacity.

Capturing Any Member Of Any Terrorist Cell Or Any Insurgent Cell That We May Happen To Come Across Is Always Very, Very Valuable, And The Thing That Interests Me Is That In Most Instances After A Time People Talk And They Tell Us What They Know.

We've Got To Ensure That The Quality And The Capability Of These Forces Will Be Good Enough To Withstand The Challenges That The Insurgents And The Terrorists Will Present To The New Iraqi Government.

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