Commander in Afghanistan Fired

This is odd, but General David McKiernan has been fired as commander in charge of the Afghan theater, and replaced by General Stanley McChrystal.

The claim is that McChrystal, with a special ops background, is better suited to the conflict, but this has unfolded very quickly.

Note that McChrystal is hip deep in the Pat Tillman friendly fire coverup, as well as allegations of torture in Iraq.

No clue as to what is going on here.
