U.S. President Bush holds a press conference in Rose Gardent at the White House in Washington, 24 May 07
President Bush has applauded a war funding bill that is expected to pass in the House of Representatives Thursday.
The president told reporters at the White House Thursday that the measure provides the funds the troops need, while requiring progress to be made in Iraq.
He also said American troops are in Iraq at the invitation of the Iraqi government and they would withdraw if asked to do so by the Iraqi government. But he said he believes a withdrawal of American and coalition troops would be catastrophic.
Democrats have dropped their demands to include in the bill a timetable for withdrawing American troops from Iraq, a move that has angered some in the party."
