Murtha's remarks
The U.S. presence in Iraq is more dangerous to world peace than nuclear threats from North Korea or Iran, Rep. John P. Murtha told an audience of more than 200 in North Miami on Saturday afternoon.
Mr. Murtha, Pennsylvania Democrat, was the guest speaker at a town-hall meeting organized by Rep. Kendrick B. Meek, Florida Democrat, at Florida International University's Biscayne Bay Campus in Miami. Mr. Meek's mother, former Rep. Carrie Meek, Florida Democrat, also was on the panel, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.
Mr. Murtha reiterated his views that the war cannot be won militarily and needs political solutions. He said the more than 100,000 troops in Iraq should be pulled out immediately and deployed to peripheral countries such as Kuwait.
"We do not want permanent bases in Iraq," Mr. Murtha said. "We want as many Americans out of there as possible."
