In watching Jim Lehrer's interview of General Petraeus on PBS last night, I was struck by Patraeus characterization of the enemy as al-Qaeda. Seems like "sectarian violence" is no longer the problem and that al-Qaeda is now the new buzzword.
This new wording sounds as if it's coming straight out of Karl Rove's mouth and might work better in justifying the Administration's military posturing. From now on, expect to hear more about al-Qaeda's terrorism and less about Shiites and Sunnis slaughtering each other in Iraq.
