Rolling Stone on Iraq

Rolling Stone recently asked a panel of experts to give their views on the future of Iraq. According to the likes of Zbigniew Brzezinski, Richard Clarke, Gen. Tony McPeak (retired), and Paul Pillar, among others, the best we can hope for is civil war and a stronger al-Qaeda while the worst case scenario is World War III. The most likely scenario, they argue, falls somewhere in between: years of ethnic cleansing and war with Iran. Depressing stuff. But divorced from reality? I wish I could say yes.
