"King David Returns"

"That's the headline of Ralph Peters' account of the return of General David Petraeus to Iraq.

Peters is a great admirer of Petraeus' character and intellect. But he's not sure if Petraeus knows how to fight.

Don't worry, Ralph. Division, Brigade, Battalion, company, platoon, and squad leaders fight. As CTJF-7 chief, Petraeus has other roles.

Plus, Petraeus is an old Screaming Eagle. Don't count on him not being willing to deliver a vicious, murderous pummelling when he needs to.

If I do have the honor of another Iraq tour, I hope it's under his command."

Well if Jason likes the guy, that's good enough for me. At least for now.
