Today I read that there are few options for our next president regarding Iraq. That story was a sidebar to General Petraeus telling his boss what his boss wanted to hear.
Many options exist. There is even one with integrity. Here it is:
Ask The United Nations to send real 'peace keepers', and send our troops home. If the U.N. refuses, grant every Iraqi collaborator political asylum, and bring them to our country as we remove our troops. Not complicated. And as soon as we have removed every last American, and the Iraqis who collaborated with the invaders, offer a heartfelt apology to the Iraqi people. Then give the Iraq government enough money to rebuild - without Blackwater & Bechtel CIA types skimming off the profits.
Easy!
Rememer, generals will always support continued warring. It goes with the territory. Job security dictates that generals please to their Commander and Chief.
Petraeus was just playing Good General, sitting in George Bush's lap, licking his master's face.
It is not too late for our government to employ integrity. Is it?
