National Strategy for Victory in Iraq
Helping the Iraqi People Defeat the Terrorists and Build an Inclusive Democratic State[edit]
The following document articulates the broad strategy the President set forth in 2003 and provides an update on our progress as well as the challenges remaining.
“The United States has no intention of determining the precise form of Iraq's new government. That choice belongs to the Iraqi people. Yet, we will ensure that one brutal dictator is not replaced by another. All Iraqis must have a voice in the new government, and all citizens must have their rights protected.
“Rebuilding Iraq will require a sustained commitment from many nations, including our own: we will remain in Iraq as long as necessary, and not a day more.”
—President George W. Bush
