Quotes-start.png "There are too few additional U.S. troops available for too little time to crush Sunni insurgents; they would flee to Sunni Anbar province and return to Baghdad once we left. Moreover, the situation in Baghdad is no longer a classic insurgency. It has deteriorated into a civil war the Shiite-led government is determined to win. U.S. troops would be caught in the middle."
