_U.S.-IRAQ: Fallon Derided Petraeus, Opposed the Surge_
(http://www.ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=39235)
some high lights
Fallon told Petraeus that he considered him to be "an ass-kissing little
chickenshit" and added, "I hate people like that", the sources say.
* WASHINGTON, Sep 12 (IPS) - In sharp contrast to the lionisation of
Gen. David Petraeus by members of the U.S. Congress during his testimony this
week, Petraeus's superior, Admiral William Fallon, chief of the Central
Command (CENTCOM), derided Petraeus as a sycophant during their first meeting
in
Baghdad last March, according to Pentagon sources familiar with reports of
the meeting.
* In a highly unusual political role for an officer who had not yet
taken command of a war, Petraeus was installed in the office of Minority
Leader Mitch McConnell, a Republican from Kentucky, in early February just
before
the Senate debated Bush's troop increase. According to a report in The
Washington Post Feb. 7, senators were then approached on the floor and invited
to
go McConnell's office to hear Petraeus make the case for the surge policy.
* Fallon was reported by the New York Times to have been determined to
achieve results "as soon as possible". The notion of a long war, in
contrast, seemed to connote an extended conflict in which Iraq was but a
chapter. .
* Fallon was signaling his unhappiness with the policy of U.S.
occupation of Iraq for an indeterminate period. Military sources explained
that
Fallon was concerned that the concept of a long war would alienate Middle
East
publics by suggesting that U.S. troops would remain in the region
indefinitely. .
* Fallon is a veteran of 35 years in the Navy, ...demonstrated his
independence from the White House when he refused in February to go along with
a proposal to send a third naval carrier task force to the Persian Gulf, as
reported by IPS in May. Fallon questioned the military necessity for the move,
which would have signaled to Iran a readiness to go to war.
* Fallon also privately vowed that there would be no war against Iran
on his watch, implying that he would quit rather than accept such a policy.
stay tuned to see Admiral's ship sunk...- whoa -crg

Peace, Hugs, and Purrs,
