New Intelligence Report Says Iraq Situation Improving

By VOA News

04 April 2008

 

 

 

 

U.S. officials say a new U.S. intelligence report on Iraq shows that

conditions there are improving and that progress is being made toward

healing political rifts.

 

U.S. media cited government officials as saying the latest National

Intelligence Estimate on Iraq provides a more upbeat analysis of conditions

than the last assessment made in August. However, the officials said the

classified document did not include the recent deadly fighting between Iraqi

forces and Shi'ite militias.

 

The report, a collaboration by 16 U.S. intelligence agencies, has been

released to top administration staffers as well as members of the U.S.

Congress.

 

Some of those lawmakers are urging the top U.S. Commander in Iraq, General

David Petraeus, and Ambassador Ryan Crocker to give an honest assessment of

the situation in Iraq when they testify to lawmakers next week.

 

Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, speaking at a news conference

Thursday, urged the two officials to not attempt to portray developments in

Iraq as more positive than they are.

 

Pelosi referred to recent fighting in the southern Iraq city of Basra in

which the Iraqi military, backed by coalition forces, battled militants

loyal to Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr.

 

Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki called the military crackdown a

success.

 

Democratic House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Howard Berman and House

Armed Services Committee Chairman Ike Skelton have also expressed concern

about Iran's influence in Iraq.

 

Berman says he will explore Iran's role with General Petraeus and Ambassador

Crocker.

How many benchmarks have the Iraqis achieved? Hint: it's less than 4.

 

How did the Iraqi forces hold up the other day? Hint: they had to be

rescued by U.S. forces.
