Gates Says It Will Take Time

There will be a  short term an increase in violence as the surge began to make itself felt," Gates said, adding that there were other "very preliminary positive signs" that the Baghdad security plan is working. We are winning the 'Hearts and Minds' of the citizens of Baghdad.

 

   

Gen Petraeus Wants More

Gen. David Petraeus, who assumed command in Baghdad last month, wants the 2,200 to act as MPs. He added that there were other troop requests still being considered in the Pentagon; he gave no specifics.
 

   

Where Is The Yenta?

The Last Election Was A Mandate For Withdrawal

The reason Pelosi, Steny, Hoyer were elected was on the promise to withdraw. What about the great Gates Commission, calling for a speedy exit. The truth is, that as long as Zionists flood the economy with Federal Reserve credit, the stock market, houses, and jobs will be satisfactory.

All this is for Israel's pipeline.
