Iraq Two Years Later Tom Engelhardt

Iraq Two Years Later

Tom Engelhardt pulls it all together in his essay on the state of affairs in American Iraq. It is a comprehensive and timely meditation, given that we have just passed the 2-year anniversary of the start of the US invasion. Engelhardt’s clear-eyed deconstruction of the boosterist myths of devotees of neo-Empire should be widely considered by those who are “rethinking” Bush’s policies after the Lebanese demonstrations.
