"Why was neocon Kristol invited by the DoD to Ft. Hood, Texas to talk to Gen.Odierno?"

...asks Col. Pat Lang, here

"...Why was Kristol invited by the Defense department to Ft. Hood, Texas to talk to Odierno? Who were the other member of the "small group" who were invited? Why does Odierno want to talk to such a group privately? Is Odierno involved in information operations in the United States?"
