US troops begin “Operation Ivy Serpent.” US troops under RPG fire northeast of Baghdad.
“Many Iraqis in Fallujah don't feel safe when joint U.S.-Iraqi patrols drive by -- they feel rage.”
India refuses to send troops to Iraq. “The Government has reached its ‘no troops’ decision despite a clear understanding that the Bush administration will not be pleased….What has weakened the case for sending the troops is the fact that the United States has not yet been able to provide any kind of road-map for the future of Iraq.”
Commentary: US Army stretched too thin. “The difference between then and now, former Clinton White House Chief of Staff Leon Panetta said, is that Clinton built international coalitions to share the burden.”
