No, the command structure has changed. Maybe you've not heard of Petraeus?

The liberals explained that one has to pay attention to the structure of the local population and having insight into their reasons for fighting in order to stop their fighting. They also criticised the fact that the casus belli Bush claimed officially was neither a casus belli nor true (the claim that Saddam had WMDs). The republicans were the ones who screamed "let's screw precision in who we strike, we don't want to waste expensive missiles on hitting a camel's ***" and a cry for crusade and "kill those muslims". We all know how successful that strategy was.

You know that is funny, because the word "I" doesn't even occur once in my post above.
