Musings On Iraq In The News

 
I was interviewed for EPIC’s Iraq Matters Podcast about the latest development’s in Iraq, Pres. Obama’s State of the Union and Iraq’s education system.

I also talked with Louise Redvers for her article “Old fault lines, new flashpoints in Iraq’s Anbar” for IRIN about the current conflict in Anbar.

Finally, I was interviewed by J. Dana Stuster for his piece in Foreign Policy “Iraq’s Abject Lessons for Mexico’s Self-Defense Forces” which compared Mexico’s attempt to use paramilitaries in its drug war to Iraq’s use of the Sons of Iraq.
