Ex-president doubts U-S military will ever leave
Iraq
By Associated Press
12/07/05 "AP" -- -- WEST POINT, N.Y. Former President Jimmy Carter
says he doubts whether the U-S military will ever completely pull
out of Iraq, despite what the Bush administration says about a
possible withdrawal beginning next year.
Carter was at the U-S Military Academy yesterday to sign copies of
his newest book for West Point cadets.
He said he believes America will have a major military presence in
Iraq for decades to come. Carter's comments come a week after
President Bush told midshipmen at the U-S Naval Academy to expect
troop withdrawals sometime in 2006.
