An Iraqi Forecast:

Omar Ghanim Fathi, writing in today's New York Times Op-Ed section:

[T]he problems of Iraq will not be solved without a long and very bloody civil war. The fragments that will emerge should practice democracy by choosing their own leaders, away from the influence of the Americans — even if those leaders are terrorists. But the people will not enjoy the democracy and liberty that was already given to them, because they refused it.
On another note, the Pentagon's new strategy for Iraq has been labeled "Go Big, Go Long, Go Home." Seems to be self-explanitory. Wonder if they're dreaming of bringing back the draft?

Coach Bush will likely begin sending the plays in from the bench, ordering his quarterback, General Abizaid, to start tossing a few hail marys and "go for the Green Monster" while chipping in for a birdie without bringing reserves in from the bullpen.
