A SMALL WAR GUARANTEED TO DAMAGE A SUPERPOWER
by Patrick Cockburn
In Iraq, writes the intrepid Patrick Cockburn, 'Stability will not return until the occupation has ended. The Iraqi government, penned into the Green Zone, has become tainted in the eyes of Iraqis by reliance on a foreign power. Much of what has gone wrong has more to do with the US than Iraq. The weaknesses of its government and army have been exposed. Iraq has joined the list of small wars that inflict extraordinary damage on their occupiers.'
