AFA Members, Congressional Staffers, Civic Leaders, and DOCA members, 2 weeks ago General Dave Petraeus testified before Congress - many times. Much of the testimony was carried on TV, and the press reported widely on his and Ambassador Crocker's words.
Like many of you, I was too busy to catch but snippets of the testimony. So I sought additional information to better help me understand what his central messages were. I found the slides that he used to brief Members of Congress - and have put them on our website at:
http://www.afa.org/PresidentsCorner/Other/Petraeus.pdf
They contain a lot of information - that can help you decide what he was trying to say.

These military guys are pretty good with Powerpoint! Seriously, this has detailed information, maps, graphs and charts.

That’s a great slideshow. Lots of good data there.
Looks like good news, too. Obvious and dramatic improvements across the board.

There must be some mistake. I heard it’s a quagmire over there.
And those guys at the Somerville recruiting office must have made a mistake, too. I heard it’s a quagmire over there.
And those parents that call in must be mistaken, too. I heard it’s a quagmire over there.

Obvious and dramatic improvements across the board. I'm not sure I'd call increasing Iranian supply "improvement."
