Petraeus' first job in Iraq was to train the Iraqi army. He failed miserably at that task, so why would anyone think he could run an entire war successfully? From Alternet: The occupation set out to rebuild the Iraqi Army and Police. So they could stand up and we could stand down. The man who was given the job was that rising star, Gen. David Petraeus. He failed. Reminds me of the guy at work who never does anything right and manages to rise to his highest level of incompetence by being promoted time and time again. Petraeus has a PHd from Princeton. No one is saying he isn't an intelligent man. But after he was kicked back to the states, after failing to rebuild the Iraq Army, he was given a new job..that of updating the Army's counterinsurgency manual. Its right here if you care to peruse it. Petraeus did a bangup job when he wrote that manual, seriously, he did. He has obviously mastered the english language and how best to use it. Its a clear, concise manual...
