Should Rethink "War On Terrorism" Strategy to Deal with Resurgent
Al Qaida Full Document All terrorist
groups eventually end. But how do they end? The evidence since 1968 indicates
that most groups have ended because (1) they joined the political process (43
percent) or (2) local police and intelligence agencies arrested or killed key
members (40 percent). News Release Project on National Security Reform Cites

Iraq Closer to Security Deal Negotiations between Washington and Baghdad
over a long-term security pact are heating up, the result of the White
House's embrace of a flexible timeline for pulling troops. The optimism marks
a turnaround from just a month ago, when big differences seemed to have
deadlocked talks over the terms of a continued American military presence in

reels 'Pushover' Maliki stands his ground
Many in the George W Bush administration dismiss Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri
al-Maliki's demand for a United States timeline for withdrawal of its troops
as political posturing, assuming that he will abandon it under pressure, just
as he did in 2006. But Maliki now has much greater purchase to defy Bush than
he did two years ago. - Gareth Porter Russia takes control of Turkmen
(world?) gas Iraqis more secure, but few are finding
jobs Most jobs are in
the military, police, and intelligence forces. But Iraqis say those jobs are
only attained through family ties or bribes. Improved security has boosted
optimism, but US commanders want to be assured it is
"irreversible." Sons of Iraq made Iraq safer. What's their
