Don't do it General Petraeus. You will just be the fall guy for Obama. He doesn't want to win. The ROEs are designed to just keep getting Americans killed. The announced departure date will lead to scenes like the last days in Saigon as we try to get out. Petraeus will tarnish his own chances for higher office if he takes this on and Obama keeps strangling the US war effort.

That’s my fear. Could be he wants to damage the Petraeus “brand”.

My nephew was just commissioned in the USMC. In my card to him I said he’s getting in during a very, very rough time - when knowing the right thing to do and then doing it may be almost impossible - but that God would be with him in the middle of it.

I pray for wisdom for everyone in our military, and especially right now for the honest officers who are confronted by a president who (according to his own statements to the Egyptian ambassador) is hell-bent on accomplishing the Muslim agenda, which I understand to be Sharia and the destruction of Israel and the US.
