U.S. Must Leave Falluja, Iraq General Says:

"The Iraqi former general entrusted with pacifying volatile Falluja said on Thursday U.S. Marines must withdraw quickly from around the troubled town and go home so stability can be restored.

'I want the American soldier to return to his camp. What I want more is that he returns to the United States,' General Muhammad Latif told Reuters in an interview.

'They should leave very quickly, very quickly or there will be problems. If they stay it will hurt the confidence and we have built confidence. They should leave so that there will be more calm.'"
