Thanks for your thoughts. A couple of quick ones of my own: First, it's too early to say what the "end result" post-Saddam is, because we're not there yet. Many Iraqis still fear Saddam's return, and the political landscape changes and is subject to change until he is caught or killed. The second and related thought is that your "solution" assumes that Saddam already has been dispatched. We're trying to accomplish that, but haven't yet. Until that's done, you don't know any better than anyone else how that will change the governability of Iraq. So, as I said before, we haven't yet won the war in Iraq, so it's early to claim that we've lost the peace. We're in between, with lots of hard work still to do, as the Administration has duly noted. I don't hear any trumpets, do you?
