In an Op-Ed presented on RT several months ago, “Pain in the Brass: Petraeus Joins Sullied Trinity of Fallen Generals”,
William Echols has written an exceptional analysis of Gen.
Petraeus' fall from grace. He brings various pieces of puzzle together
from break with tradition that was the Petraeus doctrine and ultimate
failure to the willingness of the Obama doctrine to ride rough-shod over
the American Brass.
With three four-star generals disgraced in as many years and the tale-tale signs that two more (Generals Allen and Ward) will have joined them on the chopping block in as many weeks, Echols' Op-Ed for RT lays bare questions that should be in the forefront of responsible journalism.
