An article posted on Defense and the National Interest (DNI):

Describes my low expectations about the Iraq Study Group's recommendations, and in general to negotiations with Iran.

Also lists 52 references to "the next six months are crucial" (more or less) by our leaders in the media, politicos, and generals.

Your comments and thoughts, gentlemen and ladies?
