I was on the MNF-I staff during the change from GEN Casey to GEN Petreaus. GEN Casey is a more “diplomatic” general officer. GEN David Petreaus and GEN Ray Odierno are more… ah… forceful. Forceful is something that the terrorists, sheiks, and the Iraqi government better understood (understand). The firmness and directness… and the surge - developed while GEN Casey was still command and executed under GEN Petreaus - were better comprehended. Iraqi lack of forthrightness was spotted, exposed, and not tolerated. (Dissembling is recommended by the Koran in order that one might lie to the enemy to fight a winning battle in the future… “taqiya”. Infidels are the enemy.)

It is my opinion that the Army been caught with its britches around its ankles al la the heinous crime of MAJ Hasan. GEN Casey is buying time publicly… while the DoD is formulating a course correction with respect to political correctness.

I have no more problem with Muslims in the military than I do Catholics… or Buddhists.
