Why believe Gen. Petraeus? I don't

[G_j]

All the hype...
are the Dems gonna take his word?
He has spun the war many times before.
It is well known that he is pro-"surge".
And since when does the Pentagon tell the truth?

1. During "wartime" the military can get away with saying whatever they want.

The excuse is if they reveal the true state of affairs the enemy would find out too.
So, like you said, you really can't believe anything they say or report.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

2. I don't trust him either. I've heard him talk and he was definitely politically spinning.

That is not the role of the military.

7. I imagone that is why he has advanced

to four stars :shrug:

WAR

That until the basic human rights,
Are equally guaranteed to all,
Without regard to race,
I'll say "war"

Until that day the dream of lasting peace,
World-citizenship and the rule of
International morality will remain
Just a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never obtained.
And everywhere is war.

Until the ignoble and unhappy regime
Which holds all of us through,
Child-abuse, yeah, child-abuse yeah,
Sub-human bondage has been toppled,
Utterly destroyed,
Everywhere is war.

War in the east,
War in the west,
War up north,
War down south,
There is war,
And the rumors of war.

Until that day,
the african continent will know no peace
There is no continent,
Which will know peace.

Children, children.

Fight!
