WHEELING, W.Va. (Reuters) - President George W. Bush urged Iraqi leaders on Wednesday to settle differences and form a unity government and for Iraqi troops to get ready to defend their country, in a reflection of U.S. impatience. 

Bush attempted to rally flagging American support for the Iraq war in a speech at the ornate Capitol Music Hall. Wednesday was the fifth consecutive day he has spoken in public about the increasingly unpopular conflict, which began with a U.S.-led invasion three years ago this week.
