An Army officer serving in Iraq writes

An Army officer serving in Iraq writes 07/26/2004 04:12 AM
I 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...

Unnecessary 01/17/2004 10:48 PM
The 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.
