CAIRO, Egypt -
The Iraqi minister who investigated American
military abuses at Abu Ghraib prison in 2004 says
American soldiers must stay in Iraq to defeat the
"forces of obscurantist terrorism."
Bakhtiar al-Amin, a former human rights minister who
now sits on the board of the Foundation for the
Future, said in an interview that he is generally
supportive of the Iraqi prime minister's national
reconciliation plan, though he has yet to read all
of the details.
But Mr. Amin said he thought any discussion of a
premature withdrawal of troops would be like handing
"a declaration of victory for the forces of
obscurantist terrorism."
