Musings On Iraq In The News


I was quoted in "Will ISIS March On Baghdad?" in the Daily Dish, in  “Iraqi plea for US troops as Islamic State advances in key province” by Paul McGeough in the Sydney Morning Herald, and also by Patrick Cockburn in “War against Isis: US strategy in tatters as militants march on,” in the Independent. One of my articles on Shiite militia mobilization was cited by Amnesty International in its "Absolute Impunity: Militia Rule In Iraq" report, my piece on the security situation in Anbar was reprinted by Business Insider, and I was interviewed by EPIC for its latest podcast
