- Congressmen unimpressed after visiting unstable Iraq
By Noelle Straub
WASHINGTON - Despite administration rhetoric, Iraq remains unstable and too few Iraqi security forces have been trained to allow the United States to withdraw anytime soon, Reps. Edward Markey and James McGovern said after their recent visit.
"Only if you were wearing rose-colored glasses could you reach a conclusion that the situation in Iraq is stabilizing," Markey said.
The pair visited Egypt, Israel, Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq in a week-long swing organized by House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi.
