Centcom Commander Adm. William Fallon Resigns, Citing | |
Magazine Article on Iran Policy | |
Adm. William Fallon, the top U.S. military commander | |
for the Middle East, has resigned, citing a magazine | |
article which suggested he was at odds with President | |
Bush's policy toward Iran | |
In a statement released by U.S. Central Command, Fallon | |
disputed a recent Esquire magazine article that | |
suggested differences between his views and | |
administration policies concerning Iran. | |
"Recent press reports suggesting a disconnect between | |
my views and the president's policy objectives have | |
become a distraction at a critical time, and hamper | |
efforts in the Centcom region," Fallon said in a | |
written statement released from his Tampa, Fla., office. | |
"And although I don't believe there have ever been any | |
differences about the objectives of our policy in the | |
Central Command area of responsibility, the simple | |
perception that there is makes it difficult for me to | |
effectively serve America's interests there," Fallon's | |
statement read. | |
"I have, therefore, concluded that it would be best to | |
step aside and allow the secretary and our military | |
leaders to move beyond this distraction ... and focus | |
on the achievement of our strategic objectives in the | |
region. I have submitted my request to retire to the | |
secretary of defense." Magazine: Fallon Standing | |
Between Bush and Iran | |
In the Esquire interview , Fallon is described as the | |
only man standing between the Bush administration and | |
war with Iran. | |
"If, in the dying light of the Bush administration, we | |
go to war with Iran, it'll all come down to one man. If | |
we do not go to war with Iran, it'll come down to the | |
same man. He is that rarest of creatures in the Bush | |
universe: the good cop on Iran, and a man of strategic | |
brilliance. His name is William Fallon," reads the | |
magazine article. | |
In announcing Fallon's resignation Tuesday, Defense | |
Secretary Robert Gates said it was "a cumulative kind | |
of thing. It isn't the result of any one article or any | |
one issue." [In Full[1]] | |
