Bull is right. A book is burned . A BOOK ! Thousands go insane . These are people we need to impress ? What was the Generals reaction to the Americans that were torched and hung over a bridge ? This jive about protecting the men and women in service is crap. He wants to help his people , fine, bomb the stinkhole and bring them home . The thousands of service people who have been killed and wounded had nothing to do with a book burning. Do your job General and shut the f up.

Petraeus is trying to cover his butt for the soldiers killing the civilians and making trophies of him. So he has a convenient scapegoat in this pastor to cover up his negligence.

Not to be taken as a threat!
I saw this today. “Nothing is so good for the morale of the troops as to occasionally see a dead general” - Field Marshall Slim

Also: Who ever said the pen is mightier than the sword never encountered automatic weapons” - General Douglas MacArthur

Whether true or not sounds good!
