Iraq veterans round on Bush
11.27PM, Tue Jan 31 2006
George Bush is to make his State of the Union address to the US as many former soldiers turn on the President over the Iraq war.
Many former US military personnel who have lost limbs or worse in the conflict are standing for Congress on an anti-war platform as Mr Bush is widely anticipated to vehemently defend the war.
Figures such as Tammy Duckworth from Kentucky, a helicopter pilot who lost both legs in Iraq is now standing for Congress asking for the rest of the troops to be bought home.
Mr Bush is expected to argue the US must remain aggressively engaged in Iraq around the world, rejecting critics who feel Washington is provoking ill will and should pull back.
With oil prices close to record levels, Mr Bush is also expected to highlight the need to improve technologies in order to reduce US oil imports, saying his nation is "addicted to oil".
The president's speech will be delivered to a joint session of the US Congress, where Democrats seeking gains in midterm elections have been criticising Bush on a range of issues that include the Iraq war, Hurricane Katrina relief and a domestic spying program.
He is coming off one of the toughest stretches of his presidency, and his job approval ratings hover in the high 30s to low 40s in most polls.
