Why Does The Pentagon Want To Cut And Run?

A new report sponsored by the Pentagon will call for a steeper reduction of American troops in Iraq than even Democrats like Barak Obama are suggesting.  The 300-page report by the Naval Postgraduate School of Monterey, CA, will recommend that by spring of 2009, troop levels go down to 50,000.  The study also calls for–hold on to your cowboy hat–diplomacy and negotiations.  The biggest problem with implementation: General David Patraeus, who is said to disagree with the report, says Newsweek.
