Shouldn't our troops come home?

Home More advice Politics & Law

PRESIDENT George W. Bush is "grieved" that the number of US soldiers killed in Iraq has reached 4000 and assumes responsibility for the decisions he has taken, the White House said overnight. Despite the losses, he used a speech on the eve of the war's fifth anniversary last week to defend his decision to invade and to reject any notion of retreating despite the "high cost in lives and treasure".

At least 97 per cent of the US casualties occurred after Mr Bush announced the end of "major combat" in Iraq on May 1, 2003.

Enough is enough. Shouldn't our troops come home?
