7. mixed message
what i have heard is that the general will recommend withdrawing about 4,000 troops from iraq in january(so the surge is staying for next four months..)..but i think it is not going to happen..remote control is in washington and they decide not the general

8. 4000 troops is bullshit. we just sent 30,000 for the surge...net gain 26,000 soldiers.
that's not a reduction.
