Bob Marshall on War & Peace

Republican Senate challenger

We must stabilize Iraq, instead of cut-and-run

I believe our troops and our allied forces have successfully removed Saddam Hussein but the Iraqi people must win the peace. We cannot cut and run, but we must do all we can to stabilize the region and then begin to bring our troops home. Stabilization of the region could be aided if all Iraqi citizens were allowed to own shares of the natural oil wealth thereby instilling a greater incentive to deter violence and protect their homeland. But our first consideration must be our own nation's security. Source: Campaign website, www.bobmarshall2008.com, "Issues" May 2, 2008
