#1 We Rantburgers have given the various Iraqi thugs a big bag of sh*t before, during and after this war, so I think we can be magnanimous towards Gen. Jarawi. He did the right thing, did so with class and dignity, and should be congratulated for it. All of that said, if this guy's past has involved crimes, thuggery, etc., he should pay an appropriate price.

#2 He doesn't sound or act like it. If he was in charge of the far west of Baghdad, he wasn't in a plum assignment. Sounds like a guy who knew what the hell he was doing, and survived by not making noises when shipped out to the hinderland...
