I don't know about it being preposterous - how would the US react, against which or which group of nations this time, usual suspects? And you will note "this time" -- The US policy makers have pointed out that the rest of the world "owes" it to the US to protect it from crazies out in the boonies -- but the US policy makers can make the job easier for the serving everybody else, by examining it's policies - after all, is it unfair to ask that US policy take into account the protection of the interests of these "everybody else"??
Petraeus argues that certain US policies threaten, endanger the livesof US servicemen and women, US policy makers will not be moved by the suffering of these "everybody else" - and they may not be moved by the lobby of the US servicemen and women (perhaps there is bigger lobby) -- I suppose we will have to wait and see.
Is the Al-Qaida or some such scheming day and night to inflict serious harm on the US, so that it can once again trap thge US and bleed it dry? Yes, most definetly, yes.
