Surge Regurge

Obsidian Wings' Hilzoy has a thorough look at the pro-surge arguments anticipated in the "Petraeus" report, and how they all have logical or factual flaws in one way or another. Good reading. Not that the mainstream media will pick up on the flaws in the argument and report them. Since Petraeus is expected to deliver "his" report (via the White House) to Congress on September 11, the media will be likely making a bogus connection between the al Qaeda attack on us 6 years ago, and the sectarian war in Iraq which we find ourselves in the middle of.

Meanwhile, al Qaeda regains strength in the mountain frontier between Afghanistan and Pakistan, and prepares for the next strike.
