Subject: Petraeus & the 'Central Front' Myth
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Gen. David Petraeus echoed many of George W. Bush's dubious
arguments for fighting an open-ended war in Iraq, including the
emotional appeal that al-Qaeda sees Iraq as the "central front" in
its global jihad and wants to drive the Americans out in humiliation.
But the intelligence data actually points to a near-opposite
conclusion: that al-Qaeda sees Iraq as a diversion for the United
States and wants to keep American forces bogged down there for the
foreseeable future.
For the full story of how this crucial deception has survived, go

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substanceânot soap-boxingâplease! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'âwith its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright fraudsâis used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
