Iraq is Not Enough

In National Review today, Michael Ledeen argued that Iraq is but a battlefield in the war against terrorism. Echoing the principal theme from, "The War Against the Terror Masters," his dated but still relevant book, Ledeen asserted a pattern of cooperation between Sunni and Shi'ite terror organizations and the regimes in Syria, Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia that orchestrate and support them. Ledeen contended, and I agree, that winning the war against terrorism will require confronting the "terror masters" in Damascus, Tehran, and Riyadh using military and polical means.
