The electrical generators story seems indicative of the Washington approach - we have money and resources to support more troops but not enough to provide needed services to improve Iraqi lives. A penny wise and a pound foolish as the old saying goes. We seem to have a habit of claiming a "hearts and minds" strategy but our actions seem to always fall back on the "coercion and enforcement" strategy. That is not a military malady, it is a political one.
