Kerry: Bring Home 20,000 Troops By Christmas
by TChris
Even as President Bush tries to pump up support for a war that has claimed 2,000 American lives, John Kerry announced a specific proposal to begin bringing troops home. Noting that “it is essential to acknowledge that the insurgency will not be defeated unless our troop levels are drawn down,” Kerry called upon the president to bring home 20,000 troops over the Christmas holidays, after the December parliamentary elections. Kerry has said that it would be reasonable to return all the troops within 12 to 15 months.
