-After receiving Morell's edited version, Petraeus wrote: 'Frankly, I'd just as soon not use this'

Petraeus, who was forced to resign in disgrace in November after an extra-marital affair became public, wanted to see more detail made available, including a warning issued from the CIA about plans for an embassy attack.
