Ron - If Petraeus is so sensible, why is he forming conclusions on speculation?

Nobody wants a two front war. The point is, Iran has more business being in Iraq than the U.S. That means the U.S. should stop making Iran the enemy and start enlisting their support which they should have done in the first place. Iran would have gladly joined the effort to oust Saddam and since Iraq is Shia dominated, it only makes sense.

Now the U.S. has to watch Iran and Syria and Turkey while being bombed by Iraqis. What are their chances? Slim to nothing. This is not a war that the U.S. can win. The only thing they have accomplished is more hatred for the U.S.

Yankee go home.
