Generals opposing Iraq war break with military tradition By Mark Sauer - UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER - September 23, 2007 -The generals acted independently, coming in their own ways to the agonizing decision to defy military tradition and publicly criticize the Bush administration over its conduct of the war in Iraq. What might be called The Revolt of the Generals has rarely happened in the nation's history. In op-ed pieces, interviews and TV ads, more than 20 retired U.S. generals have broken ranks with the culture of salute and keep it in the family. Instead, they are criticizing the commander in chief and other top civilian leaders who led the nation into what the generals believe is a misbegotten and tragic war. http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/world/iraq/20070923-9999-1n23generals.html ................................................................................................................................................................. "More than two decades later, it is hard to imagine the Revolutionary War coming out any other way." --George W. Bush __._,_.___
