CIA Director General Petraeus Resigns
#24
Paula Dean Broadwell USMA '95, forty this year, removed Director of Central Intelligence by outing his surge.

FBI Director Robert Mueller was reupped by Hussein last year for just such an eventuality.

Of course the Arab Spring is the replacement of secular regimes with Islamist ones using CIA and NATO.

Turkey under Erdogan radicalizes over a decade.

Benghazi was the depot and Stevens was the arms broker; CIA ran the operation, but Petraeus was a hood ornament, unwanted, nonaerodynamic.

Parry damns Gates, but it will be remembered Gates and Brzezinski wrote the 2004 CFR paper "Iran: Time for a New Approach" which was followed by the 2007 NIE saying Iran wasn't working on a nuclear weapon.

The substantive regional change is to remove U.S. allied regimes and replace them with ones inimical to Israel--but not so to Iran.

Saddam Hussein was useful to occupy Iran's military for the eight years of Reagan but that was a long time ago.

He wasn't removed in 1991.

At the USNA commencement in May 1994 Bill Clinton spent 32 minutes defending his decision not to unilaterally arm the Bosnians, not mentioning he was allowing Iran to do so.

Hussein said he would meet with leaders of North Korea and Iran during his 2008 campaign.

He will have flexibility to do so with a new DCI, SecDef, SecState, AG, and so on.

His Harvard sponsor was the Saudi prince, his mother the daughter of an Arabist professor.

He is epochal, a meld of historic forces, in his perception.

How ironic that the U.S. government which claims it was attacked on 911 by Al Qaeda now arms Al Qaeda to advance a covert gambit.

For the end of the rope disappears in the clouds.
