A good article, which asks a lot of pertinent questions. There are sufficient of these questions that one ends up thinking ‘one at a time please, one at a time.’
Posted on 19-Mar-08 at 3:24 am | PermalinkThere is no ‘quick-fix’ solution. Iraq is a mess, but it seems that things are better than a year ago and it is becoming more the time of the negotiator than the soldier, but only thanks to the semi-stability that the military have provided.
I wonder if Iraq has laid bare the limits of raw military power? The military contingency have always maintained that too few troops have been utilised from the very start. Disregarding whether we should ever have been there in the first place, there now seems to be some justification for their argument.
