Barack Obama Iraq policy
• Obama was an stark opponent of the war as an Illinois state senator and
campaigned against the war in his 2004 Senate bid. He had said, I am not
opposed to all wars, I am opposed to dumb wars.

• Obama is opposed to the present troop increase, supports a phased
redeployment.  In January 2007, he introduced the Iraq War De-Escalation Act
with a goal of removing all combat troops from Iraq by March 31, 2008.

• He has said in the April, 2007 debate, "there's no military solution to this.
We've got to have a political solution, begin a phased withdrawal, and make
certain that we've got benchmarks in place so that the Iraqi people can make a
determination about how they want to move forward."
