	Antiwar.com Blog · Edward Luttwak: Cut and Run, but Slowly
		Reagan-era hawk Edward Luttwak calls for U.S. withdrawal from Iraq in today’s NYT.
		This is a mistake: it is precisely because unpredictable mayhem is so predictable that the United States might be able to disengage from Iraq at little cost, or even perhaps advantageously.
		Luttwak goes on to explain why a U.S. threat to withdraw might force all quarrelsome parties — Shi’ite, Sunni, Arab, Kurd, Iranian, Turk, etc. — to root for the USA.

	Edward Luttwak at AllExperts
		Luttwak was born in Arad, Romania, and later attended the London School of Economics and Johns Hopkins University, where he received a doctorate.
		Luttwak is a frequent lecturer and consultant, and has developed a reputation for offbeat proposals intended to provoke thought, for instance suggesting that major powers' attempts to quell regional wars actually make the wars more intense.
		Luttwak is seen as an outsider and non-specialist in the field, but his book has raised a lot of questions and created a whole new wave of scholarship on the Roman army and barbarians on the frontier.

	Amazon.ca: Reviews for Grand Strategy of the Roman Empire: Books: Edward N. Luttwak (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Luttwak's analysis of the Roman army structure illuminates how a single city managed to impose its own order on a substantial fraction of the world's population, stretching from northern England to the Persian Gulf at its greatest extent, while employing a fairly small army of 300,000 to 500,000 infantry, cavalry, and mariners.
		The primary evidence for this, as Luttwak argues, is that in the third period, whenever possible, the Romans reverted to the defensive strategy of the second period despite the fact that it was clearly outdated.
		Luttwak, an accomplished military strategist who has worked with the Pentagon in the past, ties together literary and archeological evidence from the Roman world, and adds his strategic insight to come up with a theory of the principles guifing the "grand strategy" of the Roman empire.

	Amazon.de: Strategy: The Logic of War and Peace: English Books: Edward N. Luttwak (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Luttwak's book not only provides articulate explanations of the differences between the strategic, operational, tactical, and technical levels of war, but shows how capabilities combine across mission areas and between levels to create a coherent matrix of mobility, weapons, and communications capabilities.
		Luttwak makes an excellent argument that strategy is different from other plans of action, in that a strategist must contend with active, intelligent opposition.
		Luttwak carefully examines the advantages and disadvantages of doing the unexpected, of maneuver versus attrition and why World War II was fought the way it was, and of the consequences of fighting in a way that does not support the ultimate goals of the theater of war.

		Luttwak was on television a good deal during the early days of the Nato bombardment of Serbia, explaining why peacetime leaders were no good at making war.

	[CTRL] The Ex-Cons: Right-Wing Thinkers Go Left!
		Yet for all their disgust with unbridled capitalism, Gray and Luttwak find it hard to embrace any of the established alternatives: The furthest Gray will go is to characterize himself as "center-left." Nor is the left too eager to claim either of them.
		Luttwak downplayed the armed forces' favorite explanations for their defeat in Vietnam, weak-willed politicians, the treasonous press, a defeatist public.
		As Luttwak puts it: "Instead of proposing a whole counter-ideology, what I simply propose is society consciously saying that certain things should be protected from the market and kept out of the market." This, despite the fact that Luttwak remains temperamentally enamored, in his way, of the revolutionary impulse.

		To fair to Luttwak he does point that the regime may last just enough to get nuke in next 4 to 5 years and the challenge for USA is to undertake action during that period.
		Luttwak is certainly right, for many reasons, in contending that military action is a last-choice option here.
		In general, Luttwak's piece was a timely reminder, if any were needed, that, before military action is undertaken, the US needs to be as sure as available intelligence permits that there is no other acceptable option.

		Luttwak may be "a senior fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington," but apparently that doesn't prevent him from also speaking like he's got one of the worst cases of historical and cultural myopia of anyone outside the actual Bush administration as he asks, would Iranians rally 'round the flag:
		THERE MAY BE good reasons to oppose an air attack on Iran's nuclear installations at this time, but one of the arguments that is advanced most often is seriously flawed.
		Luttwak thinks that nothing remotely like that would happen after an invasion by a Western nation responsible for the overthrow of Iran's brief-lived experiment in popular, secular democracy.

		Strategy is made of such seemingly self-contradictory propositions, Edward Luttwak shows--they exemplify the paradoxical logic that pervades the entire realm of conflict.
		Having participated in its planning, Luttwak examines the role of air power in the 1991 Gulf War, then detects the emergence of "post-heroic" war in Kosovo in 1999--an American war in which not a single American soldier was killed.
		Je trouve les analyses de Luttwak très intéressantes sur la stratégie, mais je pense que elles ne sont pas facilement compréhensibles aux lecteurs qui n'ont pas un minimum de préparation.
