Christine O`Donnell on War & Peace

Republican Challenger

Strategy to bring troops home from Iraq: it's called victory

Most importantly, Christine has a strategy for bringing our troops home from Iraq: It's called victory. Past mistakes should not deter our need to stabilize Iraq so we can get our troops home. We can succeed in the future, but we must accompany our efforts with the honor and respect we've earned as a people. We cannot leave on the enemy's terms. We must leave on our terms.

Consider military action against Iran

The three Republican candidates agreed that Iran, which Western governments fear is intent on developing nuclear weapons and which has close ties to Shiite leaders in Iraq, has benefited from the war in Iraq. Ms. O'Donnell was the only candidate, however, to assert that the U.S. should consider military action against Iran. "You can't negotiate with the devil," said Ms. O'Donnell, who also asserted that China has a "carefully thought out and strategic plan to take over America."

Stay in Iraq until its government is stable

All three [Republican Senate primary candidates] brandish conservative credentials. They agree taxes should not be raised. They think U.S. troops should stay in Iraq until its government is stable. And all have pledged not to serve more than two six-year terms. Source: Cris Barrish, The Delaware News Journal, "Republican issues" Sep 3, 2006
