There was a US General on Faux News (of all places) this morning
addressing that very question.


Who was the General? Is he on active duty, or is he a "former General"
who doesn't really have his finger on the pulse over there? Was he
interviewed while in Iraq, or was he sitting in Fox News' broadcast
building?

If you can provide his name (or even the name of the person who
interviewed him) we can read the transcript and see exactly who this
General was and what he actually said (not that I don't believe somebody
like you who refers to Fox News as Faux News). Time to put up or shut
up.

Calling it faux news is a cheap shot but generally deserved.

The story aired between about 9:30 and 10 AM PDT 7/25/05. It appeared that
the general was on active duty. He was shown in uniform commenting from
Iraq. I was exercising on the elliptical without glasses and couldn't read
his name on the 13" tube across the room. I'm sure they introduced him but
I was paying attention to the newspaper until the discussion moved to the
make up of the insurgency.

A more diligent or competent researcher could probably find a transcript
(LexisNexis?). I briefly searched the Foxnews site but didn't find a
reference to that particular story. Sorry, but it's now exceeded my
struggle/fun ratio threshold.

Well, based on NOYB's rules, the story did not exist. Nor did your TV, your
exercise machine, glasses, newspaper, and perhaps even your house. The
existence of all these things depends on the name of the person who was
interviewed.
