Petraeus or Israel
 
So really what is more important in the grand scheme of things - the General's infedelity or what is happening in Israel? I'm thinking Israel engaging in an all out war with anyone will probably impact us more than the General's stupidity. Hope we aren't so focused on that we lose sight of a possible World War III brewing.

both the issues you present are important for different reasons.
The Israel issue is easiest to understand...we think.

The general's indiscretions? It is being pursued with the vigor it has to date as most likely there are ramifications other than the affair.

Yep. There appears to be something real rotten that we DON'T know and I am very suspicious that it was kept from us until after the you know what.

Exactly.

What will be will be. But hang on, we are in for an interesting ride in the next few months. What was it the old soliders said: "Praise the Lord and pass the ammo."

Oh boy, here we go with the conspiracy theories again.

Since January 2012 over 800 rockets have been fired at Israel from Gaza. I think what makes this attack different is that it is the first time they have been targeted at Tel Aviv in quite some time.

The Petraeus scandal may involve issues of national security. Some had some information and papers that they shouldn't have had. Who knows what could have happened there. We have also lost one of our great military and espionage minds so we are possibly weaker as a nation.

I'm not saying that either story is more important then the other, but there is the possibility of far reaching implications that we won't know about for a while yet in the Petraeus situation. Then again, it could possibly be simply a sex scandal and nothing more.

I agree.

Be really surprised if this Petraeus matter is anything more than a sex affair with some old boys in the General's network looking out for one another and getting caught at it.

The Israeli military actions are far more important.

We have 68,000 US troops in Afghanistan, that's what's really important!
