As a member of James Baker's "Iraq study group", it's reasonable to assume the Baker view will prevail. Whether that will be a dismembering of Iraq, or a simple withdrawl, I don't know. Personally I would have felt better if Baker had left his law firm, with offices in Bahrain and Riyadh, before undertaking policymaking on behalf of the government, but so be it.

Why? I mean he's owned by Saudi Inc either way.

When Israel pulled out of Gaza I knew the Iraq war was lost.

For many months now the American casulties in Iraq were very hard for me to take because I believed it was in vain.

I held back writing here what I felt prior to the election.

No more.

Pull out immediately. Whatever happens happens. It will anyway. But no more Americans have to die.

Israel can't be happy with any of this. Baker has a rep.
