Myers: Fighting in Iraq Not Yet Over

NPR | By Robert Siegel

Published April 11, 2003 at 12:00 AM EDT

Top U.S. military officials warn that the war has not ended in Iraq, especially in the north, despite successes in Baghdad and other key cities. The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Richard Myers, says only after hostilities have ended can the military turn to matters such as policing against looters. Myers talks to NPR's Robert Siegel.
