Petraeus admits terrorist attacks in Iraq may NEVER end
"You are never going to eliminate sensational attacks in Baghdad," said Petraeus.

"That cannot be your measure of success. What we have to do is reduce their number and their impact. We had done quite well until the attack yesterday (Tuesday) that killed a number of innocent civilians."

Maybe it's time to just help the Iraqi People out of the slaughterhouse that was once their country.

2. And just how many "terrorist attacks" were there pre-US invasion?
And just how many "innocent civilians" have been killed post-US invasion?
