was relieved as a senior commander in Iraq?
NO! he was not relieved for cause. Quite the contrary, he was a good commander, an excellent negotiator, and an instrument for execution of the Amman Agreement which forced the Iraqis to make progress towards self governance, sovereignty, and self defense. I would gladly serve under him again.
Against the troop surge in 2007?
No! The planning for the surge was initiated under GEN Casey and executed under GEN Petraeus. You can’t play good-cop-bad-cop with only one actor.
Is now the US Army Chief of Staff, and reluctant to call a slaughter of Army Troops radical muslim(sic), terrorism??
So, how would you have him word it? Are all Muslims in the military BAD? No, my experience says not. Will you force his hand? Should he press draconian change on our military? Have you heard of the law of unintended consequences?
What am I missing; maybe he should be CJCS or SECDEF.
