The Associated Press is reporting Gen. David Petraeus, the U.S. general commanding the Iraq war, is calling for an open-ended suspension of U.S. troop withdrawals this summer, saying a
quick withdrawal would hurt recent security gains made during the troops surge.
Congressional hearings opened Tuesday that will define the nation’s strategy in Iraq.
Tell us what you think. Do you support an open-ended commitment in Iraq or would you rather see timetables set on troop withdrawals?
