From Al-Jazeera:
A former top US military commander in Baghdad has described the war in Iraq as “a nightmare with no end in sight”.
In the bluntest assessment of Iraq by a former senior Pentagon official yet, retired Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez also lambasted US political leaders as “incompetent, inept, and derelict in the performance of their duty”.
Addressing a meeting of military correspondents and editors in Arlington, a Virginia suburb of Washington, Sanchez said: “There is no question that America is living a nightmare with no end in sight.”
He said the current White House strategy will not achieve victory in Iraq.
