hehe... yea great background reading from such a well rounded thinker open to such a free flow of ideas on this subject. First lets put the whole title of the book out there so everyone can see it.

"The End of Iraq: How American Incompetence Created a War Without End "

Second, this guy has an undying love for the Kurds and has been stumping for their 'independence' for years. In 2003, he resigned from U.S. government after 24 years of service in order to be able to criticize U.S. Iraq policy more freely.

Nothing like a fresh unbiased opinion.
