Ever since Iraq began spiraling toward chaos, the war's intellectual architects - the so-called neo-conservatives - have found themselves under attack in Washington policy salons and, more important, within the Bush administration. Now, a small but increasingly influential group of neo-cons are again helping to steer Iraq policy. A key part of the new Iraq plan that President Bush is expected to announce next week - a surge in US troops, coupled with a more focused counterinsurgency effort - has been one of the chief recommendations of these neo-cons since the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003.
