Visiting Uncle Roy

October 20, 2009 – 4:20 pm

It’s not a better world for that war, Roy. What you did and how you died were preludes to more and worse for what would have been your children’s generation. But that’s not your fault, and we err so badly in thinking it pointless. You fought for good reasons.

Iraq, Reconsidered

March 31, 2009 – 1:55 am

Iraq today is not the Iraq of the 2006 nadir. How Iraq, the U.S. military leadership, and the American civilian war leadership changed for the better are the subjects of Thomas Ricks’s outstanding and eminently readable new book, The Gamble, in which the villains get their comeuppance, and the emerging heroes triumph.
