President Bush will launch a fresh bid Monday afternoon to persuade Americans his policies are making progress in Iraq and that sectarian violence can be stemmed before it breaks out into full-scale civil war.


In a speech at George Washington University -- the first in a series of appearances leading up to the three-year anniversary of the U.S.-led invasion -- Bush will try to put the latest bloody episodes of sectarian bloodshed in context.


Bush's speech will focus on the role of Iraqi security forces. U.S. military planners have made training Iraqi troops a primary objective. Bush and members of his administration have repeatedly said that as Iraqi forces are more able to provide for their own security, the U.S. forces will relinquish some of the burden.


Bush has acknowledged that while Iraq's security forces need more training, they performed well after the Feb. 22 mosque bombing.

If you had not deserted your military unit because you were on drugs george you may have discovered the advantage of adaption and changing course.
