WAPO <—> CIA Sock Puppet
Proposal for ground invasion anywhere <—> Petraeus
Petraeus is point man for US Senate Armed Services Committee. All defense contractors get paid through this committee. Ergo, Petraeus is Chief War Marketing Director. His job is to get the money and bring it to the war machine.
McCain is his contact on the committee. The two are always working to send American military personnel and hardware assets into theaters of opportunity. These two are constantly selling war in some fashion, always looking for a sales angle, a way of inciting the public to believe their cause, etc.
Petraeus is/was mentor for McMaster. Reports say Trump hates McMaster. McCain hates Trump. Very wise of the President to get Generals Mattis and Kelly to serve at his side. I think we are in good hands as long as our President can keep McCain penned up along with Petraeus.
Mattis did help Petraeus with COIN but with the dishonorable METHOD of his dismissal by his community-disorganizer-in-chief I hope he was antagonistic in some points. Korea is Mattis’ greatest challenge and I hope all his reading will be useful. Haven’t heard if he has read the Old Testament though.
