#6 Unless I miss my bet, Powell has been promised SECDEF. Unless he retires first, Powell will move Petreaus out of CENTCOM by next Spring. I wouldn't be surprised if they try and hang war crimes on him just to keep him tied up in legal battles for the next 10 years. He's a definate political threat. It's a damn shame. A crying damn shame.
