Retired Army Gen. David H. Petraeus, former CIA director under President Barack Obama, called strongly Saturday for Congress to back the White House on Syria, declaring that military action against the regime is necessary to deter Iran, North Korea and other would-be aggressors.
Failure of Congress to approve the presidents request would have serious ramifications not just in the Mideast but around the world, Petraeus said in a four-sentence statement provided to POLITICO.

General Betrayus back again.
I have always believed that Petraeus knows exactly what happened in Benghazi. Benghazi happened about two months before Petraeus resigned as CIA Director. His testimony before Congress, November 16, 2012 was inconsistent and the CIA talking points may have been altered. I said then, that we should rename Petraeus, “Betrayus.”
One has to question why Petraeus is giving cover to the Obama Syndicate. Is this part of the modus operandi of the Obama Syndicate known as Chicago thug politics to intimidate and shut down criticism? With all of Petraeus’ military accomplishments, his life will be judged for being played like a fool.
Exactly. Which we should have known already by his silence on Benghazi.
The heat on House members has to be kept up during the coming propaganda onslaught.
My first thought exactly. . . . what do they have on him now?
Are we surrounded by losers rather than leaders?
Guess the NSA has more tape of the old rascal...maybe cavorting nude on a beach with a Boy Scout group.
Yeah, I feel like I’m stuck in a bad Fr. Malachi Martin novel!
DP = NWO.
Just like the White House backed Petraeus? Yeah, right.
Now he's a whore. A big whore.
A Four-Star whore.
Petraeus may or may not believe what he said but his influence has been so damaged at this point that his position on attacking Syria is irrelevant - and he did that to himself.
That is Jill Kelly nee Khawam. Hobnobs with generals and such down in Tampa.
he is retired.
probably looking for a consulting deal on MSNBC.
needs more money!
This is exactly the kind of cover (”That great American, General David Petraeus”.....) that the RINOs crave. That, and the encouragement of “our very good friends and allies in Europe” (none of whom will participate, of course). The fix is in. 0bama will get his war.
This filthy scumbag Petraeus has zero credibility. Anyway, Ubanga has already proclaimed he’ll do whatever he wants to do, with or without congress. What a pile of horse manure.
There is probably more TRUTH to your statement than anyone will ever know.
Put a sock in it David. You’ve lost all credibility.
