3. Andrea Mitchell: Iraq Policy 'Hopeless'

NBC News Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent Andrea Mitchell said the conflict in Iraq is becoming more unwinnable and White House hopes for a solution exceed "all rationality."

Speaking at the annual scholarship luncheon of The Hebrew University at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach, Fla., the veteran newswoman said:

"I've never seen such a situation; such a seemingly hopeless foreign policy.

"I've watched decades and decades of wars, fatwahs and conflicts, and I can tell you that the White House's expectations for a solution have now exceeded all rationality."

"Iraq is declining. The president's options are becoming more and more limited as war becomes less and less winnable. It hinders the president's ability to maintain unilateral support for his Israeli policy."
