William Lind on the need for the Democratic Party to provide an explicit alternative Iraq Exit Plan (and general Foreign Policy framework). There is a great deal of material available to the Democrats to offer an alternative, much of it the product of the [Military Reform Movement] of the 1970s and 80s. Gary Hart can tell them all about it. There is even a somewhat graceful way out of Iraq, if the Dems will ask themselves my favorite foreign policy question, [WWBD] - What Would Bismarck Do? He would transfer sufficient Swiss francs to interested parties so that the current government of Iraq asks us to leave. They, not we, would then hold the world's ugliest baby, even though it was America's indiscretion that gave the bastard birth.
