We have a new "Tsar"
US names general to be 'war tsar'

US President George W Bush has named a senior general to be the first American "war tsar".

Lt Gen Douglas Lute, currently serving as director of operations at the Pentagon, will co-ordinate the ongoing conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

He will become deputy national security adviser to the president for Iraq and Afghanistan policy.
