Hillary wants troops in Iraq for HOW long?


From Alternet:

This post, written by David Swanson, originally appeared on After Downing Street


On Monday, Ted Koppel offered a report / commentary on National Public Radio's "All Things Considered" which can be found online with this headline: "A Duty to Mislead: Politics and the Iraq War," and this introductory text: "Democrats are telling voters that if they are elected, all U.S. troops will be pulled out of Iraq. But as Sen. Hillary Clinton privately told a senior military adviser, she knows there will be some troops there for decades. It's an example of how in some cases, politics can force dishonesty."


Well, someone is trying to force dishonesty. I'm not sure it's politics.


Read the rest here.

P.S. Read the questions David Swanson would ask a candidate to find out if he/she is a peace candidate.
