The "Good General" spitting in the face of the American Founding Fathers and invading a sovereign nation, in violation of international law.

This was the case with the raid in Syria last week, which resulted in the death of the Al-Qaeda leader Abu Ghadiya.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article5062822.ece"><P>Petraeus has won hero status for seizing victory from near-defeat in the war in Iraq with his “surge” strategy. He is now reviewing the Afghan war plan, and could well decide self-defence means many more cross-border strikes into Pakistan, where Al-Qaeda and Taliban forces have regrouped.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/41B3755B-3D41-4924-ABBB-C42C8AE125D5/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
