07/26/2004 04:12 AMI just ran across this brilliant essay, The Military: Losing Hearts
and Minds? by Captain Oscar R. Estrada, that was published earlier
this summer in the Washington Post. I can't believe that it hasn't
been more widely circulated. It is worth reading in it entirety, but
here are a few excerpts: The General and the Colonel have told us that
we are the main effort, at the forefront of helping to rebuild Iraq.
But how do you rebuild when all around you destruction and violence
continue? Do the facts and figures showing levels of electricity
restored, the amount of drinking water available, the number of
schools reconstructed or the numbers of police officers hired and
trained really convince the Iraqi people that we are here to help? Are
we winning their hearts and minds? Winning hearts and minds is my job,
in a nutshell. I'm an Army Reserve civil affairs (CA) officer
stationed in Baqubah, 30 miles northeast of Baghdad. In Vietnam,
winning hearts and minds was mostly a Special Forces task, but after
that they were smart enough to get out of it, and the responsibility
has since fallen into the laps of reservists like me who are trained
to deal with every conceivable problem that arises when Big Army meets
Little Civilian. And that's why CA soldiers are among those most often
deployed overseas in the Reserve. ... One day last week we rolled into
the town of Zaghniyah to win some of the local hearts and minds. In a
country where most people are unemployed, we offer the townspeople $1
for every bag of trash they can collect. Our "docs" -- medics,
assistants and physicians -- set up shop in the local health clinic
and we try to "engage local leadership." ... An old man waves me off
and tells me that they know the Americans control everything and will
do so as long as they are here. The rest of the men nod in agreement.
As the day wears on, every ray of sun seems to add weight to my Kevlar
helmet and body armor. I am at a loss as to why our efforts aren't
recognized or appreciated. But then, as I look at the children
collecting trash and the main road clogged with military vehicles, as
I watch one of our docs try to help a woman carrying a gaunt and
sickly baby in...

US Army War College Report: Iraq War
Unnecessary
01/17/2004 10:48 PMThe Army War College has published a report, which strongly
criticises the Bush administration's Global War on Terror (GWOT), and
especially the invasion and occupation of Iraq. "Bounding the Global
War on Terrorism" (PDF) notes that the original purpose of the GWOT
has grown from a search for justice for the thousands of Americans
lost in the 9.11 attacks, in to something far too ambitious, and
completely unrealistic. According to the report, the invasion of
Iraq was unnecessary, and a strategic error.
