Foreign Policy Experts Favor Iraq Withdrawal
These are some pretty striking numbers from a recent survey of top conservative and liberal foreign policy experts by the Center for American Progress and Foreign Policy. Not surprisingly, the results are strongly in line with Obama's foreign policy positions and far afield of John McCain/President Bush. But, then, as McCain would likely say, why should we listen to EXPERTS?
– 80 percent say that the U.S. has focused too much on the war in Iraq and not enough on Afghanistan.
– 69 percent recommend that the majority of U.S. forces in Iraq be redeployed in the next 18 months, up one percent from last year.
– Zero percent say Iraq is most likely to become the next al Qaeda stronghold; 51 percent say Pakistan will be.
– 81 percent say U.S. policy towards Iran has negatively impacted national security.
