    POPS    Afghanistan going down the toilet
    kelvin273
    by kelvin273  2-27-2008   
     So basically postwar Afghanistan is looking a lot like postwar Iraq now. The Iraqi invasion (and the timing) just look better all the time. :-/

    POPS    Why Saddam pretended to have WMDs

     This is interesting. I always thought he was afraid of a domestic rebellion, i.e. the Kurdish rebellion that was only put down with mustard gas.

    POPS    Are they underestimating Harry Reid?

     I wonder if Harry Reid is smarter than we've been giving him credit for. Conventional wisdom in Democratic circles holds that he's a wimp who folds every time Republicans even threaten a filibuster. But I wonder if it's possible that playing the helpless minority, especially on Iraq, might pay more political dividends than direct confrontation by sending the message that voters *must* give the Dems 60 votes in the Senate and the presidency if they want the war to end. I still think they should be more confrontational on domestic issues like the AMT, but this is food for thought.

    POPS    Contingency plan for Iran attack released

     The addition of an attack on U.S. forces in Iraq is kind of new, but does this really surprise anyone who's been paying remote attention to the news for the past few weeks?

    POPS    Details of Saddam's Execution

     I find it interesting that Al-Maliki didn't attend the exection. He's on record as being against the death penalty, but it's also smart politically. By not attending personally, he avoids the appearance that he's a Shiite politician gloating over the death of the Sunnis' hero.

    POPS    Incoming intelligence committe chairman doesn't know squat about al-Qaeda

     Then again, neither do the Republicans apparently. The whole article is worth reading for the disturbing picture it paints of our intelligence community.
