Bush Says He Tried to Avoid War ‘To The Max,’ Explains How God Shapes His Foreign Policy
NEW YORK President Bush today said he had tried to avoid war with Iraq “diplomatically to the max.”
Speaking to a business group in Irvine, Ca., he admitted mistakes were made in planning for the Iraq invasion, but he defended the troop level, saying “it was the troop level necessary to do the job,” and he would commit the same number if given a second chance.
The remarks came as another former general joined seven others who in recent days have called for the resignation of Pentagon chief Donald Rumsfeld, saying he had mismanaged the planning and execution of the war.
