Former State Department Official: U.S. Cannot "Stay A Course" In Iraq
Until last year, Mr. Wayne White was head of the U.S. State Department's Iraq Intelligence Section.
In a recent interview with the BBC, Mr. White said the U.S. is not winning in Iraq, and cannot "stay a course" there.
He told the BBC:
"The effort can't be sustained over the long haul, and so we can't stay a course, I think, that requires years and years more." He went on to say "We're not winning. It's apparent. I checked with almost a dozen sources in Baghdad in just the last 24 hours. Every single one of them answered the question as to whether the violence was lessening, or getting worse, with - 'worse'."
