After Iraq...

Another thought provoking op-ed in the Washington Post. I don't agree with some of what the author says, but his brief history of U.S. involvement in the region is worth reading, and the rest is good material for debate.

This article reinforces my belief that we must take radical steps to disentangle our economy from oil. My previous post on W's missed chance at greatness might have been a way to make substantial progress towards that goal, but the political window to do it is gone for the foreseeable future.
