Surely you wouldn't take a quote OUT OF IT'S TIMEFRAME and dealing with the reality of the situation as it EXISTED at that point?

You forget that Kofi Annan was Kerry's very close friend and likely consulted Kerry on what it would take to get UN to take over in Iraq?

Kerry's plan at the time would have likely worked so he could get the troops started home within 6 months of taking office - the part of his plan that you ignore.
