What do you think General Petraeus will say about Iran?
How much time will he spend on Iran and their "support for the insurgency?"

1. General "Peaches" Petraeus will say EXACTLY what his Masters in the Military Industrial
Complex order him to convey. No more. No less. General BETRAY-US is, IMO, an even bigger ass-kisser, spring butt, brown noser than Colin Powell (when he was on AD).

Who says geniuses do good deeds? When they cross to the dark side, they're downright dangerous, i.e., see AEI Membership Roster for further reference.

2. Given that, what do you think he will say?
Obviously if he makes Iranian incursion one of his main themes we should get ready to invade Iran, I should think.

3. That will depend on what Bush tells him to say.

5. Watch for that hump in the jacket
I'm assuming Cheney would be the one prompting him, correct (not Bush)?

6. I think the speech is is going to deliver, not write, will gin up fake evidence of
Iranian involvement in the deaths of our troops in Iraq and evidence of a threat to Israel. He will also throw the nuke issue just to ratchet up the fear-factor.

7. I fear you are right
He could use the magic phrase "I don't know how successful we can be in Iraq until we take care of those who are supplying our enemies."
