Retired Marine General Bernard Trainor

Retired Marine General Bernard Trainor presents his strategy for attacking Iraq in today’s Washington Post. Trainor calls for the use of a sizable American force, in excess of 100,000 troops, rather than the use of Iraqi opposition as a proxy. He argues that the larger the American force, the more clear it will be that resistance is futile, and thus the less resistance we will face.
