jour<\/a>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abAmerica’s leading military commander in Iraq, General David Petraeus, last night signalled that the Bush administration may be ready to reverse its troop surge in Iraq and begin pulling soldiers out as early as next March.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbOnly days before he is to deliver his progress report to Congress on the surge’, Gen Petraeus told ABC television he did not forsee maintaining present troop levels in Iraq because of the strain on the military. The surge will run its course. There are limits to what our military can provide, so my recommendations have to be informed by, not driven by, but they have to be informed by the strain we have put on our military services, he told ABC during an interview in Baghdad.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbThe general refused to be more specific. But asked whether the US would begin pulling out the 30,000 extra forces deployed during the ‘surge’ by next March, he replied: Your calculations are about right.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbAnother official told ABC the reduction could begin as early as December with further withdrawals every 45 days.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbYesterday’s interview came a day after George Bush made a surprise visit to a US air base in Anbar province. Mr Bush also raised the possibility of withdrawing some forces from Iraq, but warned Congress he would not bow to public opinion in setting his war strategy.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tR\u00e9sumons-nous : Petraeus pr\u00e9sente un rapport qu’il n’a pas \u00e9crit comme s’il venait de l’\u00e9crire, rapport qui annonce la victoire prochaine comme si elle \u00e9tait d\u00e9j\u00e0 remport\u00e9e. Il est demand\u00e9 au Congr\u00e8s de faire comme s’il croyait \u00e0 ce rapport et \u00e0 la victoire prochaine. En \u00e9change, Petraeus annonce le commencement du retrait des troupes comme si la victoire annonc\u00e9e \u00e9tait effectivement r\u00e9alis\u00e9e, en 2008. Tout cela contredit \u00e0 peu pr\u00e8s tout ce qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 dit, tant sur la r\u00e9alit\u00e9 de la situation op\u00e9rationnelle que sur le retrait des troupes. Mais comme de toutes les fa\u00e7ons tout et le contraire de tout ont \u00e9t\u00e9 dits dans l’ordre et dans le d\u00e9sorde, quelle importance en r\u00e9alit\u00e9 ? D’ailleurs, dans l’expression quelle importance en r\u00e9alit\u00e9, quelle importance a la r\u00e9alit\u00e9? En r\u00e9alit\u00e9?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
