Foreign Fighters Leaving Iraq For Afghanistan

Gen. David Petraeus, the U.S. commander in Iraq, said last week there is some intelligence that Al Qaeda is shifting forces from Iraq to Pakistan and Afghanistan. That would continue a larger trend: the departure of foreign fighters. The Pentagon says that in early 2007, at the peak of foreign terror in Iraq, foreign fighters [...]

Defining “Victory” in Iraq

As recently as the first half of 2007, the idea of an American victory in Iraq seemed like a fantasy to just about everyone, including me. General David Petraeus surged additional troops to Iraq, however, and he transformed the joint American-Iraqi counterinsurgency strategy into what nearly all observers now acknowledge is a remarkable and unexpected success. Few bothers to argue otherwise anymore....

Wall Street Journal on Obama's world tour

The analysis, and the criticism, of Barack Obama's trip overseas keeps coming. The Wall Street Journal weighs in: Mr. Obama also knows that Gen. Petraeus opposes setting a fixed timetable for withdrawing U.S. forces from Iraq. This military judgment ought to count for something, particularly since Congressional Democrats have long scolded President Bush for failing to pay sufficient heed to the advice...

Barack Obama and the Surge in Iraq

I'm betting the claim that Barack Obama was right about Iraq all along will be the dominant hard-left foreign policy meme throughout the fall. In the postmodern world, neither the Bush administration, Senator John McCain, nor General David Petraeus deserve credit for the improvement of security in Iraq and the shift toward political accomodation. Indeed, for left-wing partisans, the increase in troops...

The World According to McCain

Has anyone pointed out yet that McCain is giving credit to the surge for things that happened not only before the actual surge began, but to events that took place before General Petraeus, the architect of the surge, was even in Iraq? Seriously- the Anbar Awakening: In the summer of 2005, the Abu Mahals needed [...]

Iraqi Ambassador, Petraeus Report Al Qaeda Moving to Afghanistan

things I was gonna write, but now I don’t need to

Obama’s understanding of warfare is so wrong, it has to be written off as sophomoric, or an insult to Gen Petraeus… and our intelligence. Presidential Candidate Obama’s statements in and about Iraq in the past 24 hours have been nothing less than shameless and disgraceful. ...criticism of his words transcends rank political partisanship if for no other reason than his claims are simply and flatly untrue,...
