well, right now it looks like we're trying to hold up Iraq as an example to the rest of the middle east, attempting to create a groundwell of support for democracy.

Will this approach work? There are some encouraging early signs, but it's too early to tell.

We should be (and I hope we are), raising up and supporting democratic reform groups over there. Because ultimately, it's going to have to be the people themselves, who are going to have to be the ones to reject terror.
