You’re looking at a picture of Admiral William Fallon, the former US commander of US forces in Iraq and Afghanistan-former as of today. He announced his retirement, citing the “embarrassing situation and public perception of differences between my views and administration policy” as the reason for retiring.
His difference of opinion? He is opposed to the use of force against Iran over its nuclear program. He was described in an Esquire magazine article as “the strongest man standing between the Bush Administration and a war with Iran”.

Fallon calling it quits shows that there are still a few poeple that believe in the US consitution. He represents and understands “We the Poeple”. He is not a puppet of the Bush admin. Bush operates outside the law of our consitution and Fallen choice is not too.
