Long article, worth every word.
On May 13, the Washington Post published an online op-ed by former CIA director and CENTCOM commander David Petraeus, titled “Anti-Muslim bigotry aids Islamist terrorists.” The op-ed was noteworthy chiefly for Petraeus’ use of rhetorical clichés more commonly expected from the Council on American Islamic Relations and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation’s “Islamophobia Observatory,” including such standards as “inflammatory political discourse against Muslims and Islam,” “blanket discrimination on the basis of religion,” “those who flirt with hate speech against Muslims,” “those who demonize and denigrate Islam,” “who toy with anti-Muslim bigotry,” and the ever-reliable “demonizing a religious faith and its adherents.” Although the op-ed seemed to target Donald Trump, it also admonished all Americans to limit what we say about Islam.
But in the curious case of Petraeus’s op-ed, what was deleted prior to publication is more interesting than what the Post finally published. Sometime early in the morning on Friday the 13th, these six words were deleted from the short Petraeus bio (known to editors as the ID) accompanying the piece: “chairman of the KKR Global Institute.”

Yes, he has... the bitch set him up.
Mr. Petraeus, the followers of Islam suffer religious rabies.
Mr. Petraeus, spend wisely your 30 pieces of silver.
Oh, and the next life? For some, hell is where their soul will be extinguished.
Others, not so lucky.
It’s a global investment firm that wants to expand into the middle east and north Africa, with KSA as a separate point of focus.
I am all for free association, including those who choose to work for organizations in the middle east, but we need some sort of tracking of who’s on what payroll. So many of our top level leaders and executive branch Secretaries end up working for interests that are not necessarily in our US interests. Not that other voices can’t be heard. We just need to know who’s voice we are hearing. In this case it’s not General Petraeus, but rather foreign lobbyist Petraeus. The two are not the same thing.
Because telling Muslims their religion is in error, Mohammed was a terrible person, or some other negative thing braking with it will justify, in their eyes, violence against you.
He’s telling the battered spouses of the world to stop talking back to their husbands.
Didn’t some freepers want him for VP?
He’s telling the battered spouses of the world to stop talking back to their husbands.
That about covers it.
“Here is one of the greatest examples of a military man betraying his country for “thirty pieces of silver.””
Exactly. He jumped right on board the global open borders express.
Mohammed said, “Follow me and I will lead you to victory, pillage and rapine, all in the name of serving a god who will welcome you into a sensual paradise if you are ever killed by one of your victims intent on keeping his life & his stuff.”
“Qualifications?”
“Rape, murder, arson, & rape.”
“You said `rape’ twice.”
“I like rape!”
Fourteen centuries worth.
Has the General converted to Islam??
Betrayus was always a globalist.
They forgot to add “and convicted felon”, David Petreaus.
RLTW
It was a misdemeanor.
Another great one Travis... thanks for posting.
“Federal convict” might be more appropriate.
...although the current DOJ vernacular would identify him as a “justice involved individual”.
the latter......Betrayus loves being a Westerner and all the perks that come with that. That’s why he’s so eager to prostitute himself
Knew Betrayus was scum after this

How many battles or wars, has this pointy headed progressive intellectual won?
Islam above all, would value and respect devastating force.
We have been held back from delivering same, by people like Petreaus/Obama/Hillary.
Hearts and minds, come AFTER complete unconditional defeat and surrender, not before or during.
