Today's N.Y.Times lead editorial is an example of hutzpah equal to hubris. Titled" An Army for the Day After", it encourages Seretary Rumsfeld's plans to elevate in importance " stability operations" policy to the level of importance of invasion plans. Quoting the Times, " Stability operations are not a panacea. But if used wisely, they can spell the difference between a successful completed mission and an endless quagmire".
Say what? The Times wants more nation-building. What country or countries? Do they have to be a threat to Israel to qualify- Iran and/or Syria? So any redeployment of troops after a withdrawal from Iraq will be kept close by? So Judith Miller was not the only reporter/editor/publisher at the Times Organization that wanted an Iraq invasion with or without WMD/al-Qaeda connections.
