	Plans for a Post-‘Surge’ Iraq - Council on Foreign Relations
		The premise of his plan rests on two conclusions: U.S. forces have not proved capable of stabilizing Iraq and instability is a structural element of Iraqi politics that cannot be solved militarily.
		Based on their analyses of some dozen recent civil wars, Pollack and Byman call for a redeployment of U.S. forces from Iraqi population centers to the periphery to stem the flow of refugees, keep Iraq’s neighbors at bay, and essentially let the civil conflict “burn itself out.” Like Simon, Pollack admits the plan is risky.
		The emergence of alternative strategies on Iraq comes against the backdrop of two major developments: First, an escalation in carnage that a recently released National Intelligence Estimate describes as a “sea change in the character of the violence.” The February 4 suicide attack in Baghdad was the single deadliest (CSMonitor) since the war began.

	Predicted effects of invading Iraq (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Predicted effects of invading Iraq are those predicted prior to the actual invasion, not those that actually happened, nor new effects alleged after the fact.
		The predicted effects were often cited in United Nations actions regarding Iraq, popular opposition to war on Iraq and global protests against war on Iraq.
		As American popular opinion of war on Iraq has changed to reflect doubts about the outcomes of war, it forced the American government position on war on Iraq to change somewhat, and worldwide government positions on war on Iraq increasingly isolated the American push to war.

	Bush administration confirms plans for war against Iraq
		The US and Britain continue to bomb Iraq more than a decade after the supposed end of the war, while the economic sanctions imposed by the United Nations, at US instigation, are responsible for a modern holocaust, the death of as many as one million Iraqis, mainly children, the elderly, the sick and the poor.
		The Turkish regime is fearful that a war in Iraq could lead to the creation of an independent Kurdistan in the north, which would become a magnet for millions of Kurds in southeastern Turkey who are presently denied their national rights.
		War is the means chosen by American imperialism to establish a dominant position in the oil-rich Middle East and Central Asia.

	Bush Goes on Offensive To Explain War Strategy - washingtonpost.com
		President Bush plans to begin a series of speeches next week again explaining the administration's strategy for winning the war in Iraq, as the White House returns to a familiar tactic to allay growing public pessimism about the war that has helped keep the president's approval rating near its historic low.
		The public relations offensive is being launched amid intense concern in the White House about polls showing that a growing majority of Americans disapprove of Bush's handling of the war and harbor growing doubts about the prospects for success.
		Bush's planned speeches on Iraq come as that nation's fledgling democracy is struggling to put together a unity government against a backdrop of intense sectarian violence.

		Public opinion polls show that the majority of British people would support war with UN backing, but are strongly opposed to war without.
		The group urged neighboring Iraq to continue cooperating with the UN inspections, and agreed that "military strikes on Iraq might further destabilize the Middle East region." In the end, Turkey did not grant access to its land and harbours as asked for by U.S. officials.
		The public appears to consider Saddam to be as much of a threat today as in the past, and are particularly interested in attempts to repatriate many Kuwaiti citizens who disappeared during the Gulf War, and may be languishing in Iraqi jails to this day.

		Iraq's oil production capacity is no more than about 2.8 million barrels a day, down 25 percent from the levels seen before Operation Desert Storm, according to a report prepared by the James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy at Rice University and the Council on Foreign Relations.
		Iraq's oil industry has long had a reputation for professionalism and technical expertise, and corruption has been far less of a problem than in many other oil-producing nations.

	CNN.com - White House trying new public relations approach on Iraq - Oct. 8, 2003
		In a speech to the Council on Foreign Relations in Chicago, Rice restated many of the Bush administration's arguments that deposed Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein posed a threat to the region and could have supplied weapons of mass destruction to terrorists.
		Though no banned weapons have been found in Iraq since Saddam's ouster in April, Rice said U.S.-led inspectors have found extensive evidence that his government was trying to conceal continued efforts to develop them from U.N. weapons inspectors before the war.
		More than 100,000 U.S. troops are now leading the occupation of Iraq, which President Bush now calls the "central front" of the war on terrorism that began with the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington.

		Jim Winkler, responsible for the application of the church's teachings to social policy, said war against Iraq was 'without any justification according to the teachings of Christ'.
		In it Sontag wrote: 'Real wars are not metaphors _ they have a beginning and an end_ But the war that has been declared by the Bush administration will never end.

		ANTHONY ZINNI (Ret.): The Gulf War may have ended in 1991, but CENTCOM for 12 years after was in Iraq, flew it over, no fly zones, no drive zones, maritime intercept operations, occasional bombings, an average presence of 23,000 troops from all services.
		RAY SUAREZ: Zinni said a key lesson from the Gulf War is that post war plans must be in place before the first shot is fired.
		My judgment is that there's a great deal of planning taking place on the military side, the uniformed military side primarily in four deployed locations, in Qatar, Kuwait and of course in Tampa at the headquarters of the Central Command.

	The Next MacArthur - Who will run Iraq after the war? By Chris Suellentrop
		Japan was given no sovereignty, no diplomatic relations, its citizens were barred from traveling abroad, and its flag and national anthem were banned.
		The last time this country got involved in a civil war in the Middle East was in Lebanon in 1982, and 240-odd Marines lost their lives.
		The war may be about WMDs NOW, but within a year it's going to be about the fact that a new collection of "the best and the brightest," on the right this time, have gotten in over their heads.

		The public relations deluge by Bush, Cheney, Secretary of State Colin Powell, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld seemed to be aimed at denying any policy fumbles and insisting that the liberal press was ignoring the positive developments in Iraq.
		Apparently for the neoconservative civilians who are running the Iraq campaign, 9-11 was that catalyzing event—for they are now operating at full speed toward multiple, simultaneous wars.
		This was being discussed as part of a five-year campaign plan, he said, and there were a total of seven countries, beginning with Iraq, then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Iran, Somalia and Sudan.

		As one senior Administration consultant put it, the military's planning for Iraq is operating "under V.F.R. direct"—that is, under visual flight rules, an air-traffic controllers' term for proceeding with minimal guidance.
		The leaders of the State Department, who are more restrained in their planning, accuse the Pentagon civilians of confusing dissent with disloyalty; Pentagon officials, in turn, accuse Secretary of State Colin Powell and his deputy, Richard Armitage, of a loss of nerve.
		Iraq is a proud country that has been humiliated, and it's madness to think that these people, while hating Saddam, are in love with the United States.

	The Office of Strategic Influence Is Gone, But Are Its Programs In Place?
		The plan was troubling for many reasons: It was profoundly undemocratic; it would have put journalists’ lives at risk by involving them in Pentagon disinformation; and it’s almost certain that any large-scale disinformation campaign directed at the foreign press would have led, sooner or later, to a falsified story being picked up by U.S. media.
		This new policy, says Arkin, increasingly "blurs or even erases the boundaries between factual information and news, on the one hand, and public relations, propaganda and psychological warfare, on the other." Arkin adds that "while the policy ostensibly targets foreign enemies, its most likely victim will be the American electorate."
		It is essential that media follow up this story, particularly now, as the country faces a possible war with Iraq and reporters rely even more heavily than usual on Pentagon information.
