John Abizaid Certainly Quotations

There are certainly considerations that we must make with regard to the level of the forces,

We certainly will take whatever military action we need to defend ourselves and to prevent the enemy from taking advantage there,

So we're bringing in as much as we can. I know that NATO forces will be coming and certainly we're bringing more forces from the US, more helicopters.

And the answer is it is, but it's also a difficult road to go on. There are peaks and valleys that you go through, but overall, the trend is good. We're certainly confident. And the most important thing we're confident about is that the Iraqis want to do this. They want to take the fight. They will take the fight.

The international community needs to continue to help and you can certainly count on the United States to continue to help as well,
