Top Iraq Commander Won’t Rule Out More Troops

HeadlineMar 09, 2007

Meanwhile in Iraq, top U.S. commander General David Petraeus said he could not rule out the possibility of requesting more troops.

General David Petraeus: “Right now, we do not see other requests (for troops) looming out there. That’s not to say that some emerging mission or emerging task will not require that. And if it does, then of course we will ask for that.”

General Petraeus went on to say there is no pure military solution to the Iraq War and that the U.S. will eventually be forced to negotiate with Iraqi militant groups.
