MSNBC: Petraeus takes control of a 'tougher fight'

I can't help but wonder what that tougher fight could be. It would seem like a war and all the aftermath is tougher then anything else, but obviously not. I suppose, Petraeus is in the position where he can pick his fights, huh?!

Maybe it is a matter of the proverbial 'councils of war never fight' situation. That would be a constant uphill battle, if it is not fighting a loosing battle. Then again, you never know. Petraeus did not make it to the rank of General by redeeming points; he may have some tricks up his sleeve.

I do admire his determination, because this 'tougher fight' he picked, surely is not for the faint!
