Iraq Study group

[39mto39g]

The study groups "Term" paper is due 'out' today.
A cut and paste from

"In light of the importance of Iraq to United States interests and the future of the region, there is urgent need for a bipartisan, forward-looking assessment of the situation in Iraq.

At the urging of Congress, the United States Institute of Peace is facilitating the bipartisan Iraq Study Group, led by co-chairs James A. Baker, III, former secretary of state and honorary chairman of the James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy at Rice University, and Lee H. Hamilton, former congressman and director of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. The Iraq Study Group will conduct a forward-looking, independent assessment of the current and prospective situation on the ground in Iraq, its impact on the surrounding region, and consequences for U.S. interests.

The United States Institute of Peace is facilitating the group with the support of the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), the Center for the Study of the Presidency (CSP), and the James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy at Rice University."

One of the recommendations is kinda funny, It is said to, "open a dialog with Syria and Iran"
Irans president has said that "a world without America is desirable and achievable." Now just what will we be talking about? How to do this , maybe?
One day we will wake up and stop trying to have a talk with our enemies.
Tonight at 8 is when the President will comment of the study.
