But the surge is not linked to any sustainable plan for building a viable Iraqi state and may even have made such an outcome less likely -- by stoking the revanchist fantasies of Sunni tribes and pitting them against the central government. The recent short-term gains have thus come at the expense of the long-term goal of a stable, unitar

I Have a New Theme! As many of the regular readers have noticed, I’ve installed a new theme. The theme is called Revolution Tech, and I actually paid money for it so I hope people like it. The feedback I’ve gotten so far has been positive. I’ll be tweaking it a little as time goes by, in hopes of getting it the way I want it. I know that some of you will miss the purple and red that dominated my last theme, but I know just as many of you are breathing a sigh or relief. I can’t please everyone
