Victor Davis Hanson in Commentary - Refighting the War - you decide...

[SSG Rock]

I just finished two books, "Plan of Attack" by Bob Woodward, dry but somewhat informative, especially on planning the OIF campaign and "In the Company of Soldiers" by Rick Atkinson, which was also a bit dry compared to Rick's past work, but I'll read anything he writes.

Victor Davis Hanson in Commentary - Refighting the War - you decide...

I would say an quick review of Mr. Hanson's OpEds pretty well gives his start point.


Refighting the War
Hanson, Victor Davis (June 2006)
A much-discussed “insider’s history” is missing not only the key insiders but a sense of history.

The Bush Doctrine's Next Test
Hanson, Victor Davis (May 2005)
Can we take a principled stand for democracy when three of our powerful "friends" in the Muslim world are dictatorships?

Has Iraq Weakened Us?
Hanson, Victor Davis (February 2005)
Far from tying us down, the overthrow of Saddam Hussein and its aftermath have enlarged our strategic options.

Do We Have Enough Troops in Iraq?
Hanson, Victor Davis (June 2004)
The real strategic issue is not how many soldiers are on the ground, but how they are used.

Iraq's Future-and Ours
Hanson, Victor Davis (January 2004)
Given the progress already made, and given what is at stake, American staying power is a referendum on our own moral health.

Rumsfeld by Midge Decter
Hanson, Victor Davis (December 2003)
Donald Rumsfeld, we are told, had a bad summer and a worse fall. But what Midge Decter's biography reminds us is that we need this seventy-one-year-old veteran far more than he needs us.
