Three Years
Fantastic. This NY Times article hits just about every major note of the Iraq War debacle in the opening sentence:
On the third anniversary of a war that they once expected to be over by now, President Bush and senior officials argued Sunday that their strategy was working despite escalating violence in Iraq, even as a former Iraqi prime minister once favored by the White House declared that a civil war had already started.
Three years on, I don't really have anything new to say. I've written an article for the bimonthly SIPA newspaper Communique on the Iraqi insurgency that will be out in two weeks, and touches on a lot of the issues I've raise on this blog. I'll post a link when it's up.
