With no other security forces on hand, U.S. military was left to confront, almost alone, an Iraqi insurgency and a crime rate that grew worse throughout the year, waged in part by soldiers of the disbanded army and in part by criminals who were released f...

We must support initiatives that provide clear, concrete measures and milestones that our troops need for defeating the insurgency, building up Iraqi security forces, and handing over Iraq to the Iraqi people.
Andrea Oakes
There`s this tendency in the West to believe that the insurgency is linked to Iraqi politics. As much as the White House would like to set a milestone, we`re not going to realize what the turning point was until a year or two after the fact. We have to st...

The Syrian regime is helping the insurgency in Iraq and allowing all kinds of militants to come in and out, and go to Iraq to attack random soldiers and innocent people.
Andrew Kennedy
The secret is out. There is something decent unfolding in Iraq. It`s unfolding in the shadow of a terrible insurgency, but a society is finding its way to constitutional politics.
Antony Dugdale
The presence of American troops is fueling the insurgency in Iraq, as acknowledged by General Casey and numerous other experts, and is helping terrorist recruiters build their numbers across the globe.
Alireza Jafarzadeh
The number of attacks on the American and allied forces is at the highest level since the insurgency began despite the increase of America combat operations and the introduction of some 40 new Iraq security forces and battalions.
Alexis Gordon
The key here is the Sunnis have voted in large numbers. One way or another, the Iraqis will be in a position to move forward. You defeat an insurgency politically as well as militarily.

The information gleaned when we picked up Saddam Hussein led to a better understanding of the structure [of the insurgency], ... We think there are some of the leadership of this insurgency [that have been caught up in the sweep].

The Government of Iraq also owes a debt to the American and coalition forces who are fighting the insurgency and helping put that country back together after decades of repression.
Alexis Gordon
The administration needs to speak honestly with the American people. Exaggerating our progress in defeating the insurgency or in creating an Iraqi army paints a dangerous picture.
Andrea Oakes
Our military should spare no expense to ensure the safety of our troops, particularly as they confront a hostile insurgency and roadside bombs throughout Iraq.
Alan K. Simpson
Now that our troops are mired in a dangerous effort to defeat the insurgency and are also trying to help rebuild the country, Americans of all political persuasions simply want the United States to succeed and our troops to be as safe as possible.
Harry Reid
It really does seem to me the war is stalemated in that the enemy, which has shown great resilience, cannot defeat us militarily, but neither do we have the capacity to eliminate the insurgency through military means.
Anna Shuford
If we want to build the Iraqis` confidence about our intentions in their country, if we want to stop adding fuel to the fire of insurgency and terrorism, we must clarify our intent.
Alireza Jafarzadeh
If the constitution is adopted, it will be over the objections of the Sunni leadership. To expect that to be able to resolve the insurgency is simply unrealistic.
Anjem Choudary
I am encouraged by the news today that United States special operations personnel found, identified and killed the terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the operational commander of the al-Qaeda led insurgency in Iraq. Al-Zarqawi was the public face of the insu...
Amarri Jackson
But the key shift in focus will be from counter-insurgency operations to more and more cooperation with Iraqi security forces and to building Iraqi security capacity.

[Weah said he was] totally different ... One, she is a woman and I am a man; two, she is older and I am younger; she is an old politician and I`m an new politician. At the same time I have never hurt humanity she did. I have never organized insurgency she...
