Biden

Lest you think I feel that all criticism of the administration with regards to Iraq is out of bounds, Senator Biden has outlined a strategy for Iraq that takes into account many of the criticisms of the manner in which the administration has handled the post-war situation.

I don't know if everything he advocates here would be good for the Iraqi people or the coalition's troops, but it's definitely a reasonable perspective. I think involving NATO would be a great idea, but I'm not so sure about the UN. I have a suspicion that the Iraqi people may not care for the UN having so direct an influence in their lives - especially if that means a lot of input from their Arab neighbors.
