Overview

With a panel of distinguished experts—including Ivan Eland, Peter Brookes, Lawrence J. Korb, Lt. Gen. William E. Odom (Ret.), and Gareth Porter—this groundbreaking program addresses a variety of solutions for Iraq. Some contributors argue that military overstretch in the Iraq war makes it necessary to rethink U.S. interventionist foreign policy—noting the degree to which American influence throughout the world has been squandered by an unnecessary war—and call for leaving Iraq. Others discuss partitioning Iraq or forming a loose, decentralized confederation that would reduce the likelihood of an explosive civil war; while still others defend U.S. foreign policy, suggesting that more international financial support would greatly assist in the reconstruction of Iraq. The forum concludes with a lively and provocative question and answer session.
