Why was National Security Advisor Jim Jones wrong about the troop surge in Iraq? Why did his opinion fail the truth?

Steve, My impression is that we should have never gone to war in Iraq. Never had a surge in Afghanistan as we are losing good and true men and women who die, come back minus arms and legs, and even minds. It is time to take stock of what war is, and learn to try to negotiate instead of running out to start a conflict as GW and his cohorts did by duping the Congress of the United States. As you can see I am not fond of GW and never had been. But, he is, as well a Cheney, Condi Rice, and Rumsfeld, criminals against humanity. One only has to read the Geneva Conventions (treaties) signed against the beligerants in times past to understand that Bush and Company are war criminals and should be dragged before the World Court. Sorry to go off on a tangent, but, as you can see, I don't like a man who did things unilaterally instead of bilaterally. Michael Joel Held
