Bush also acknowledged for the first time that he made a "miscalculation of what the conditions would be" in postwar Iraq. But he insisted that the 17-month-long insurgency that has upended the administration's plans for the country was the unintended byproduct of a "swift victory" against Saddam Hussein's military, which fled and then disappeared into the cities, enabling it to mount a rebellion against the U.S. forces far faster than Bush and his aides had anticipated.
He insisted that his strategy had been "flexible enough" to respond and said that even now "we're adjusting to our conditions" in places such as Najaf, where U.S. forces have been battling one of the most militant of the Shiite groups opposing the U.S.-installed government.
