Flashback — Biden: I Was Shot at While Touring Iraq

"Number one, there is not a single military man in this audience who will tell this senator he can get those troops out in six months if the order goes today. Let's start telling the truth. Number one, you take all the troops out. You better have helicopters ready to take those 3,000 civilians inside the Green Zone where I have been seven times and shot at. You better make sure you have protection for them, or let them die -- number one. So we can't leave them there. And it's going to take a minimum 5,000 troops to 10,000 just to protect our civilians."
