Good interview with Gareth Porter on Scott Horton's show via http://scotthorton.org/...
According to Porter, General Petraeus basically told Cheney and company what they wanted to hear to get the Iraq job. Apparently, the best way to win a war is basically say you won and get out.
He also said that Petraeus basically believed his own hype by the time he got to Afghanistan and was very susceptible to Paula Broadwell blowing smoke up his you know what. And, that he threw his own book out the window in regards to counter insurgency.
