Giuliani Says He'd Consider Adding Troops in Iraq for Success
By Catherine Dodge and Peter Cook
June 13 (Bloomberg) -- Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani said he would consider increasing U.S. troops in Iraq if the head of military operations there, U.S. Army General David Petraeus, requested them.
``If he said the strategy was working, and we needed more soldiers to make it work,'' Giuliani said in an interview today, ``of course I'd look at that and consider that.''
Giuliani, 63, said he knew such a decision would be unpopular. ``Leadership is about sometimes doing the things that you know are right'' and then educating the public, he said.
But of course Petraeus is going to say the surge is working, regardless of the reality on the ground. That's the whole point. |

As Rudy said, if the General reports that the plan is working, then he would support sending in more troops in order to ensure its continued success.
And your problem with winning the war is what, exactly? |
