I can’t tell you exactly when it’s going to be done, but I do know that it’s important for us to support the Iraqi people who have shown incredible courage in their desire to live in a free society. And if we ever give up the desire to help people live in freedom, we will have lost our soul as a nation, as far as I’m concerned.
