Rumsfeld: Expect More Iraqi Attacks on U.S. Troops
Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld appeared on Meet the Press this morning. He said we should expect more Iraqi attacks on U.S. troops this summer--that we are still at war--and that our troops will be there "for the forseeable future." Currently, there are about 150,000 U.S. troops in Iraq.
Since May 1, when Bush declared the end of major combat in Iraq, 31 U.S. soldiers have been killed and "scores have been wounded in hit-and-run attacks."
