What are we supposed to do?
Reader comment on item: U.S. Needs To Learn Patience [in Iraq]

Submitted by John Blakemore (United States), Dec 1, 2004 at 11:07

Your remarks are reasonable, but not helpful. So what does it mean for America to be patient? You point out that so long as our troops stay, there will be problems, and that only the Iraqis themselves can solve the problem. So what are we supposed to do?
