Reply #73: Clark never wanted to go to Iraq [View All]

Clark doesn't want to stay in Iraq. Murtha wants to draw back troops to the borders. Clark wants to draw back troops to the borders. Murtha wants an air campaign of bombing the Iraqis if they get uppity. I admit, I'm not sure that the General would advocate that part.

Murtha hasn't spoken about Iran and the problem that a nuclear Iran causes for the region. Clark has been speaking about this for some time.

Clark sees 3 things that we must do: Use transparent regional diplomacy, close the borders especially the neglected situation along the Iranian border where cash and guns are pouring in (see Assassins' Gate) use our remaining leverage politically to enact changes in the Constitution to bring the Sunnis a fair playing field.

With all due respect, General Clark has been talking about all of those issues for a long time. You may see this as a change, I'm just not sure how.
