I think William Arkin is the most brilliant...
military analyst I have ever seen. He was just on MTP, and I have seen him before, and the guy not only never fails to offer a clear and intelligent examination of the situation in Iraq, but also what sounds like the most prudent course to take. I know he was against the war prior to the start, and so I may be biased towards him. But I really urge everyone to watch the repeat and listen to his analysis. Makes me wonder why is is not in charge over there.

3. No...
but it really did not tie into the discussion. He really wanted to convey the seriousness of the impending disaster, and that we need to draw down our troop levels, say around, yesterday.
