Turkey has already recalled their ambassador to the US. Turkey just MIGHT shut down the US logistics route to Iraq. Most supplies heading into Iraq are hauled through Turkey. Ruining US-Turkey relations and shutting down that supply route will be a subtle and effective way of starving the US military machine and ending the occupation, eh? PRIZE FOR SUBTLE CONGRESS INSTEAD

Must be kidding! Isn't he (Petraeus) part of the gang responsible for almost 4,000 American casualties and over 50,000 wounded? By the way, I think that each soldier who returns wounded from the war should go first to the White House, to take a picture with George Bush and Cheney. Those pictures should be exposed in the Oval Office and in the VP's office, to daily remind the gang of how many people were killed because of their "special interests." Peace Prize? Must be kidding!
