the Silence is Deafening...the Iraq Study Group report

[Copernicus]

[ QUOTE ]
I actually agree with Copernicus, gasp. The report is a neutered rag of vague hopes and dreams. It states the obvious (things aren't good), wants that which is near impossible (the Israel/Syria/Iran business), and punts the relevant strategic issues in Iraq. They should have gathered 10 top generals to evaluate the pros/cons of several strategies, and left it to Washington to pick one. We don't need 10 policy wonks who try to reach bi-partisinism for the sake of bi-partisanism.

Not the first time we've agreed, though close to it! At least you have the ability to explain and justify your positions when we disagree, unlike most of hacks here.
