From The Lowell Sun (http://www.lowellsun.com/portlet/article/html/fragments/print_article.jsp?article=3072005):
The invasion of Iraq was the “greatest strategic disaster in United States history,” a retired Army general said yesterday, strengthening an effort in Congress to force an American withdrawal beginning next year., Retired Army Lt. Gen. William Odom, a Vietnam veteran, said the invasion of Iraq alienated America's Middle East allies, making it harder to prosecute a war against terrorists.
The U.S. should withdraw from Iraq, he said, and reposition its military forces along the Afghan-Pakistani border to capture Osama bin Laden and crush al Qaeda cells.

This general only says this because he hates the troops, or at least that's what war supporters have accused other Iraq War opponents of being.
