Bush Administration Experts?

Mr Pipes,

I find it interesting that while you show such obvious contempt for the findings of the Iraq Survey Group you provide no viable alternatives to these findings. You seem to place your faith in the so-called experts of the Bush administration. However, if these experts are so familiar with Iraq its people and its politics, how is it that they made such a catastrophic mess of the occupation in the first place?

Daniel Pipes replies:

I have hardly endorsed the Bush administration's policy in Iraq. For for what I think, see "Bibliography – My Writings on Iraq Policy."
