Cliff May: Petraeus’s progress getting harder to deny

Petraeus’s progress getting harder to deny
โ€œThe only thing this surge will accomplish is a surge of more death and destruction.โ€ That was the prediction of blogger and anti-war activist Arianna Huffington back in December of last year — one month before the Senate unanimously confirmed Gen. David Petraeus as commander in Iraq.”

“…Operation Phantom Strike, if it is successful, will mean more โ€œdeath and destructionโ€ โ€“ mostly for Americaโ€™s sworn enemies. No doubt, the anti-war crowd will both oppose that and pronounce it a failure even before itโ€™s fully underway. But other Americans โ€“ if they learn what is really happening in Iraq — will support the troops. Most will favor giving them the time and resources they need to complete their mission.”

Go Iraq Go!
