On January 20, President Clinton or Obama should fire Petraeus |
|
And replace him with a general who will be loyal to the new president's plans for a phased withdrawal from Iraq.

3. Do they plan on really withdrawing or is that a carrot on a |
|
string. There will be "peace enforcers" instead.

4. No need to fire him. Tell him what to say and he will. |
|
He's a tool of power. No reason to believe he will change.
Then you can say "see, even you god says we should leave."

7. There's an election and they want us to think they have a |
|
handle on the situation when they don't. Bush is king.

8. Bundle him on a plane and send him to The Hague |
|
Let him answer to a tribunal composed of the survivors of his troops' atrocities.

9. Or just, you know, give him a new set of orders |
|
Not sure what firing him would accomplish.

11. I seriously have my doubts that he would follow orders to pull out |
|
Or that even if he did, he would publicly bitch and complain about it to a sympathetic news media.
