Interesting article in the Washington Post today:

An amazingly bad series of decisions by almost everyone involved, except maybe Iran.

Are the days of principled American war-fighting really over? I'm surprised that the US still hasn't yet been able to name the enemy in Iraq and the rest of the Mideast. Until we can do that, it's hard to have much hope for an effective military strategy or long-term peace.
