The New York Times is reporting that there is some success in Iraq. But not the kind the Americans were expecting. Of course its not what the neo-cons predicted but in one of those twists of fate it is a neo con strategy. Remember Wolfowitz saying that Iraq would be self-sustaining after the American Invasion. Well it is.
The insurgency in Iraq is now self-sustaining financially, raising tens of millions of dollars a year from oil smuggling, kidnapping, counterfeiting, connivance by corrupt Islamic charities and other crimes that the Iraqi government and its American patrons have been largely unable to prevent, a classified United States government report has concluded.
