SPEAKING FREELY
The United States' new commander in Iraq, Lieutenant-General David Petraeus, has written definitively - and correctly - about how the US military should conduct its counterinsurgency strategy. Bolstered with a promised 21,500 extra troops from President George W Bush, expect the military to run this doctrine up the flagpole, salute it, and then prosecute the war exactly as before, relying on force, not foresight. - Julian Delasantellis (Jan 11, '07)
