The "We told you so" crowd often points out that we'd be a lot better off if
anyone in the administration read history, usually citing the British
occupation of Iraq.
I like to think of myself as part of the "So what do we do now?" crowd, but
it is like drinking gall. We could try what we clearly should have done from
the beginning: putting more boots on the ground. We've got about 135,000
troops there now. Gen. Eric Shinseki's "several hundred thousand" prediction
looks more prescient all the time.
The trouble with that scenario is that it violates the First Rule of Holes.
