General David Petraeus: “I Don’t Know” If The Iraq War Will Make America Safer

Ah, there they go again. Victory’s just around the corner, just out of sight, we only need to keep hitting our collective heads against the brick wall in order for something magical to happen.

By the way, General, while you were spinning…

Insurgents fired rockets or mortars Tuesday at the sprawling garrison that houses the headquarters of American forces in Iraq, killing one person and wounding 11 coalition soldiers, the U.S. command said.

The command said the person killed was a “third country national,” meaning someone who is not an American or Iraqi. Most troops stationed at Camp Victory are American but other coalition soldiers are based at the complex near Baghdad International Airport. No further details on the attack were immediately released.

The attack occurred as U.S. Ambassador Ryan Crocker and the top commander Gen. David Petraeus testified before Congress for a second day on the situation in Iraq since President Bush’s decision to send 30,000 reinforcements to stem sectarian violence.
