Rep. Delahunt: “We must insist on legal protection for our troops”
Chairman Bill Delahunt (D-Mass.) talks about the current situation in Iraq and says that “all of us” should accept the need for a reasonable and responsible withdrawal of U.S. troops. He explains that a priority for the Iraqi people is the end of U.S. occupation and a full restoration of their rights and dignity as a sovereign people. Delahunt also says that while he supports this Iraqi ambition, America must insist on legal protection for the U.S. troops. (1:23)
