I agree, Bill... something strange is going on. I CAN tell you that having had personal friends over there (and still do as will there be more), some support issues are not being adressed in the manner which we would normally expect in an outright war. The bureaucrats seem to have taken over what passes for the 'military asylum'. Perhaps that's what the good general was railing against and perhaps what got him shit-canned.
