    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Sanchez went on to offer a pessimistic view on the current U.S. strategy against extremists will make lasting gains, but said a full-scale withdrawal also was not an option.<font face="Verdana,Sans-serif"><font size="2" color="black"><span id="article"><span id="intelliTXT">

    "The American military finds itself in an intractable situation ... America has no choice but to continue our efforts in Iraq," said Sanchez, who works as a consultant training U.S. generals.</div></p>

    Seeing the mountain of blame he casts, it cements my opinion that he deserves more than I thought.</p>

    I find myself completely uncaring as to what former General Sanchez has to say. It's not like he was ever a tactical geniusm much less a grand strategist.</p>

    And to think that he's training US generals... Way to keep incompetence going!</p>
