Six weeks from today the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq will turn over sovereignty to an Iraqi government. With that deadline in mind, the Committee on Foreign Relations meets today to further explore the administration's plans for the transition. Yesterday, Deputy Secretary Armitage and Deputy Secretary Wolfowitz answered questions on many aspects of our Iraq policy, and despite the difficult challenges ahead, both noted progress in preparing for Iraqi governance.

This is the sixth hearing that the Foreign Relations Committee has held on Iraq in the last month and the twentieth since January 2003. I might add that many of you have participated in several of those hearings and made very vital contributions. We are hopeful that these hearings enlighten the American people, as well as stimulate thinking within our government and within the Coalition about creative policies that will optimize our prospects for success.

Secretary of State Powell reflected the perspective of many Americans about Iraq last weekend when he said: "The United States is not anxious to keep our troops there any longer than we have to. We want to finish our job, turn full sovereignty over to the Iraqi people, see them elect a government that is fully representative of the people, and let us come back home as fast as we possibly can. But we're also not going to leave while the Iraqi people still need us, and while the interim government or the transitional government still sees a need for our presence."

Now, with lives being lost and billions of dollars being spent in Iraq, the American people must be confident that we have carefully thought through an Iraq policy. A detailed plan is necessary to prove to our allies and to Iraqis that we have a strategy and that we are committed to making it work. If we cannot provide that clarity, we risk the loss of support of the American people, the loss of potential contributions from our allies, and the disillusionment of Iraqis.

Achieving a positive outcome in Iraq is a vital national security priority. The appalling revelations about prisoner abuse in Iraq have added to the stakes, because they have hurt our reputation in the Middle East and the international community. As we pursue the noble goals of independence and security in Iraq, the deeds we perform must be consistent with our words about freedom, democracy, human rights, and accountability.

As we discussed in our hearing yesterday, we must use every tool at our disposal to ensure that the transition to Iraqi sovereignty succeeds, and we should make every effort to accelerate stabilization and reconstruction in Iraq. Once the new caretaker government is named by United Nations Special Envoy Lakhdar Brahimi, the transition to sovereignty should begin immediately.

It is vital that we put an Iraqi face on the governance of that country. The Iraqi people must have a visible role in securing the country, organizing elections, managing reconstruction. The most effective way to make this happen is for elections to take place as quickly as possible. If national elections can be accelerated for the transitional and permanent Iraqi governments, scheduled now for January and December 2005, respectively, we should move up that timetable. In the meantime, we should push forward with as many elections at the provincial, municipal, and neighborhood levels as possible. Yesterday Secretary Armitage underscored that local elections are taking place and are making a positive difference in the attitudes of Iraqis.

Accelerating completion of a new United Nations Security Council resolution could also help give international legitimacy to the new Iraqi government and clarify new security arrangements. We want to hear from our witnesses today about what a Security Council resolution should contain and whether opportunities will emerge after the transition of sovereignty to broaden the international coalition working in Iraq.

Our committee also has closely followed the management of reconstruction funds appropriated by the Congress. I noted yesterday that only $2.3 billion out of the $18.4 billion appropriated for Iraqi reconstruction in the November 2003 emergency supplemental have been obligated by March 24. And we would like our witnesses to comment on whether they see legitimate reasons for the slow pace of reconstruction activities. Can the coalition move more efficiently and swiftly in this area given that delays in reconstruction undercut the United States' credibility and increase suspicions among Iraqis who are impatient for those improvements?

I was struck by the final paragraphs of a column by Arnaud de Borchgrave in the Washington Times this morning. He is an old friend of many of us, and I would admit to having enjoyed conversations with Arnaud, as many of you have, around the world for many years. He writes in the Washington Times today some thoughts of outsiders. Yesterday our hearing was with insiders within our government. Today it is with scholars, people who have been witnessing this situation and who are not a part of the CPA or our government. And this is all now a quote from Arnaud de Borchgrave's column in the Washington Times of today.

He says: "One former low-intensity warfare specialist at the Pentagon described his visit to the Coalition Provisional Authority in Baghdad's Green Zone as `Alice in Wonderland.' `It's hard to get out of it, let alone get into it,' he told an audience of strategic experts. Some of them have never met an Iraqi outside the Green Zone and yet they draft proclamations they have no way of implementing. CPA is part of the problem, not part of the solution.

Fifth, "The civilian contractors hired to train a new Iraqi Army cost the U.S. taxpayer a lot of money and got it all wrong. The target of 27 battalions meant quantity, not quality. They were designed as an external protection force, unable to deal with urban warfare."

Then Arnaud concludes: "The U.S. has given top priority to a new U.N. resolution that would confer legitimacy on a U.S. military presence in Iraq after July 1. The coalition is splintering as its members with boots on the ground -- Britain, Italy, Denmark, Poland and Hungary -- face growing domestic opposition. And Mr. Rumsfeld's `old' Europeans -- France and Germany -- and Russia are negotiating among themselves what demands will be made on President Bush in return for a favorable vote on a new U.N. resolution. The I-told-you-so European `oldsters' may see this one as diplomatic payback time."

With these rather challenging comments in front of you, you already have provided provocative testimony, but the purpose of our hearing today is really to try to push it all out. I cannot think of a better panel to do this.

I would like for you to testify in the order that I will introduce you, and that will be, first of all, Dr. Anthony Cordesman; second, General Joseph Hoar; third, Dr. Phebe Marr; and finally, Dr. Larry Diamond. We thank you for coming, and before I ask you to testify, I will call upon my friend, the distinguished ranking member, Senator Biden.

It sounds like a little bit of hyperbole, but it is not. You said we are looking for clarity, and we have had the chance, privately and publicly, to plumb the ideas of the witnesses we have. I can really say from my perspective -- and I suspect yours -- without equivocation, we have a panel that is capable of providing clarity and they have been providing clarity on this for a long time. I just hope to hell people start to listen a little bit.

I also want to thank you, Mr. Chairman, for the clarity that you are providing in the sense that you have been consistent in one simple, clear question, and that is, what is the plan? Or as they used to say back in my generation, "What's the plan, Stan"? What's the deal? What is the plan?

I realize we spend a lot of time talking and having serious witnesses come and discuss the strategic situation in the Middle East, in Iraq and the consequences that flow from that. To use the vernacular again, the devil is in the details. It is the tactical decisions that we are making, I think, so badly from, as one of the witnesses and I were talking earlier, literally not being able to get into the Green Zone. I mean, why there is not a special "express line," to use his phrase, to allow people to get in there, things that when you go there and you are on the ground, you wonder how can this be managed this way.

I want the public to know just because we spend a lot of time, because we do not have a strategic plan that has been put forward, talking about that, no one should misunderstand that the success or failure of our effort to provide a whole stable state that is secure within its borders, not a threat to its neighbors, not a haven for terror, not seeking or having weapons of mass destruction ultimately comes down to some significant tactical judgments that I hope we will get to talk a little bit about today because these people know of what they speak.

And the last point I will make, looking at General Hoar. General, I am not going to put you in a spot and ask you this today. We heard yesterday, we hear constantly that the generals on the ground do not need any more forces. When we were on the ground, people I talked to, coming back from on the ground, there is a genuine resentment that is communicated coming from the operational commanders on the ground in Iraq who do not think they are being supported.

Now, if you are here as long as many of us have been and all the people here, you end up over time just establishing contacts, friendships, relationships with people who are not going out of the chain of command. They are your friends, and you get e-mails and you have discussions. I just want to make it clear that I really think that, as our colleague Carol Moseley-Braun used to kid and say, we should not have the generals wearing the jacket here if this thing goes south.

I apologize for being as personal as I am being here, Mr. Chairman, and I actually do have a short opening statement. I remember when you and Senator Hagel and I -- it will be a year in August -- were in Iraq.

Joe Biden

June I should say. I remember Chuck Hagel, when we were talking to somebody, I turned around and I saw him walking back to a Humvee and getting in a conversation. As a non-commissioned officer that he was, he really knows where the real power is. He was talking, if I am not mistaken, to a sergeant. I may be mistaken. But then one gathered and two and three and four, and they started talking to us. They were already -- "angry" may be the wrong word. If he wants, I will let him elaborate on this. But they were already concerned. They were already feeling that they were not getting the straight scoop. They were already of a mind.

Joe Biden

Then we met with a group of deployed forces from our home States. And it was like, hey, someone tell us the truth here, will you? Someone tell us what the deal is here. Someone tell us how long we are really going to be here. Remember, I know the Secretary of Defense says this is not the case, and it may not have been, but the perception was we were going to be down to 30,000 troops by December. That was clearly coming from the Pentagon. My point was we have not leveled here, and I want to make sure that, if you are willing, general -- and if you are not, I understand. I would a little straight talk about what is going on, what you think as a Marine four-star -- by the way, damn, you look good. I tell you what. Does he not? He looks like he stepped out of Gentlemen's Quarterly.

So, Mr. Chairman, it seems to me our policy right now seems to be stuck in second gear. To continue this silly metaphor, I do not think it is in reverse, as some of my colleagues think. I do not think it is lost. I do not think it is beyond the pale. But I do think it is in second gear because we tend to be reacting at events and are continually behind the curve.

Joe Biden

When this administration makes a judgment that is sound, it is usually a day late and a dollar short. It appears every time that they are being pushed into a position. If Secretary Wolfowitz had said -- how many months ago was he here? I cannot recall. Three, four months ago. We asked him if there was anything they got wrong. Well, no. Everything is just right. If he had said what he said yesterday, that they underestimated the opposition, that they underestimated the amount of force that was needed, if they had leveled a little bit, we would be moving along a little more here.

And getting them to level is not getting them to level in order to say, "We told you so, you are wrong." You have got to figure out what mistakes were made, whether you say them publicly or not, in order to figure out what we do from here.

It seems to me two of the mistakes that were made, Mr. Chairman -- and I know I am a broken record on this -- is we went into Iraq with two towering deficits, a security deficit and a legitimacy deficit. As a result, I think we are losing the Iraqi people, and without their support, we have little chance of succeeding.

As I have said time and again, the Iraqi people have to want to have a government that is representative more than we want them to have it or it is not going to work. At least as much as we want them, they have to want it.

Joe Biden

There was a report that came out at the request of the Secretary of Defense last year, a commission led by John Hamre goes over and comes back and says we have a window of opportunity, but it is closing in Iraq. We all in one form or another sent out a report saying the window of opportunity is closing in America. We only have a window that is only open so long for the American people to say let us get this done, we are willing to make the sacrifices to get it done.

Joe Biden

But the American people I think are still with us because they know if we fail in Iraq, it could take a generation to recover from the damage. But without a new plan -- not staying the course -- a new plan to succeed that overcomes the security deficit and the legitimacy deficit, I am concerned that we are headed for serious trouble in Iraq and at home.

Joe Biden

To change the dynamic, I believe the President has to articulate a single, overreaching goal, and I think we should take this June 30, as badly as it has been planned, as badly as it has been handled, and turn it from a liability into an asset. We should use that date as the rationale for our continued and increased presence and international presence or major power presence in Iraq, and that is that our purpose is to hold successful elections in 2005 in December. That is the rationale for our being there. That is the rationale for why we are going to stay there because that is the vehicle through which the Iraqis ultimately get control of a stable, God willing, government that can be held together. I think he should use those elections as a rallying point within and beyond Iraq to build more security and more legitimacy.

Putting the focus on elections in my view would provide a rationale for Europeans and Arab leaders to join the effort. It would provide a reason for an Iraqi caretaker government to be able to be seen as cooperating with the "occupiers" and would give the American people more confidence that we have an end strategy -- not an exit -- an end strategy.

Joe Biden

I know that our witnesses today will present their own ideas for recapturing the initiative, and I look forward to asking some very specific questions. Would using elections next year as a rallying point offer a way to broaden the coalition and recoup some of the ground we have lost? Just as we do not know the strategy, I do not think the Iraqi people know the strategy. I do not think they know what the deal is.

How do we energize the moderate center in Iraq, assuming it is there, because if it is not there, all this is for naught in my view -- that silent majority of people who reject an Iranian style theocracy and a new strongman but remain on the sidelines because they have been conditioned for over 30 years not to raise their heads.

With at least 82 percent of the Iraqis saying that they oppose American and allied forces, how long do you think it will be before the Iraqi government asks for our departure? As one person said, the race will be who asks us to leave first, the American people or the Iraqi people? And how should we respond? .

Joe Biden

Who should be the primary international figure that the Iraqis interact with during this difficult transition period from July 1 to December 2005? Should it be an American super- Ambassador or should it be a major power representative in place who will be the referee?

What will we have to do to attract support of our NATO allies? And is it important that we put a different face on this, that it be a NATO-led multinational force?

Joe Biden

I believe we can still succeed in Iraq, but we need a strategy for success and we need leadership from the President. And that is not a political comment. I am not being a wise guy here. This is not the President is responsible, the President has to fix it. That is not what I am saying. I literally believe things have gotten out of whack to the point that sending your Secretary of Defense, your Secretary of State, your National Security Adviser, is not sufficient. The President of the United States of America has it within his capacity, because of the power of the office and because of his character, if he will exercise it, to bring the major powers in the world together on this. As a plain old politician, it does not matter what level that political discourse takes place. Presidents and Senators and Congressmen and mayors are no different. When you want to get it done, the principal has to engage the other principals directly.

Joe Biden

By the grace of the office he holds and the country he represents, I believe the President of the United States has the power to reverse this downward spiral we are in. And I will support him if he begins the process, publicly support him, but we must act decisively and deliberately. We cannot continue to fall backward into a strategy that not many people understand.

Let me begin by noting we are dealing with truly complex problems, and I have provided a formal statement that goes into these answers in depth. I am all too well aware, however, of the time pressures on U.S. Senators, and let me confine my oral comments to a few short remarks.

First, it may be too late to deal with the most serious problem we face within the U.S. Government, the fact that a small group of neo-conservative idealogues were able to substitute their illusions for an effective planning effort by professionals using the interagency process.

Some 40 years ago, I entered the office of the Secretary of Defense at a time when an equally small group of neo-liberals were able to do the same thing. These "best and the brightest" trapped us into a losing war and their names were written invisibly on the body bag of every American who died in that conflict.

This time it is neo-conservatives, not neo-liberals who trapped us into a war without setting realistic and obtainable goals without a realistic and workable approach to creating stability, security, and nation-building. And once again, we find that the end result is that incompetence kills just as effectively as malice.

The resulting message is simple. We need an interagency system that works, a National Security Council that forces jointness on military and civilian alike, and a clear understanding that idealogues of any stripe should never be allowed to function in sensitive positions in the office of the Secretary of Defense, the National Security Council, the office of the Vice President, and organizations like the CPA without adequate controls and checks and balances.

Second, we must never again treat forging a piece as phase IV or talk about post-conflict operations as if peace was a secondary objective. Our war planning should make reaching a successful peace -- a peace with clear, long-term strategic benefits -- its primary goal from the start. The effort to win the peace should begin as a political struggle before the first shot is fired, and it should continue to have first priority through every day of combat.

Moreover, the Congress must act firmly and decisively to find a workable alternative to the War Powers Act. It must find one which ensures it is fully consulted on the reasons for war, the battle plan, and the precise nature of the strategic and grand strategic goals which are the reason for using military force. The Congress should never again vote for the equivalent of war without a clear and realistic plan for armed nation- building and clear and achievable goals for peace. It is not just the names of neo-conservatives that are written invisibly on every American body bag that is coming out of Iraq.

Third, to turn to the specific issues here, I cannot assure this committee or anyone else that we can still win an acceptable level of victory in Iraq or that we could have done so with proper planning before the war started. We have to deal with the aftermath of decades of tyranny and economic failure, the resulting power vacuum, and political, religious, and ethnic tensions, which have never worked their way out.

I do believe, however, that we have at least a 50/50 chance of coming out of this war on such terms if we do the following things, and I should note that many of my recommendations are underway in some of the actions of the administration and follow the recommendations of the chairman and ranking member.

Above all, we need to accept the fact that only a broad range of Iraqis from within Iraq can create a government that Iraqis require as legitimate. We must recognize that such an Iraqi government must be as inclusive as possible and include many ex-Baathists and Shi'ite Islamists. There can be no real progress or security solution without a broadly based government that various Iraqi factions see as acceptable and which is chosen by a majority of the key factions within the Iraqi people.

The United States cannot abandon its military effort to bring security to Iraq as long as there is hope and progress. But we must make every effort to rush forward the realistic training and equipment of Iraqi security forces, and there must be tangible and clear benefits that we are doing this and not a series of half-truths, false reports, and an inability to report on the fact that the equipment and training is not being rushed forward and is not being provided on the basis that is needed. We must remember that only trained, effective cadres can do this mission, not untrained masses of men.

The United States must abandon its Green Zone approach and effort to rule through a massive new embassy and to transform the Iraqi economy through U.S.-chosen projects driven by U.S. contractors. We need to totally restructure the American aid process to go directly to Iraqi ministries and Iraqi governments and do so through programs that they choose or through U.S. military-run programs designed to supplement bullets with dollars. Aid must be focused on tangible, visible progress on the ground, not idealized dreams of some future. Our management should consist of demands, programs, avoid corruption and produce clear benefits.

The Iraqis, not the United States, should shape this country's destiny. At the same time, we must make it clear to the Iraqis that they, not the U.S. or United Nations, are ultimately responsible for success or failure. They must know that we and the international community will leave and will not aid or sustain them if they do not reach workable political compromises, do not make real progress, or turn toward civil war. No Iraqi should operate under the illusion that either the U.S. or the U.N. will save Iraq from itself.

Fourth, we cannot succeed in Iraq unless we understand that no issue so drives Iraqi, Arab, and Islamic perceptions of the United States as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Our peace efforts are perceived throughout the region and Iraq as weak and dishonest, and the United States is viewed as little more than Israel's proxy.

False as such perceptions are, we cannot succeed in Iraq or have a strategy that will function unless we revitalize the peace process. We must accept the fact we are now dealing with two failed regimes, not just one, and that steady and visible U.S. pressure is needed on both governments. That means U.S. pressure on the Palestinians to halt terrorism must be matched by equal pressure on Israel to halt the expansion of settlements and those Israeli security measures that do more to make a Palestinian state impractical than to aid Israeli security.

And finally, the Bush administration must not make another major strategic blunder in the Middle East. It must accept the fact it is currently too unpopular to issue a U.S.-led Greater Middle East Initiative and that it must concentrate on Iraq and the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

Mr. Chairman, in the interest of time, I will not go into detail on just how dangerous I think the public drafts of the Greater Middle East Initiative are. It should be clear, however, we have no climate of trust. We have no basis for pushing reform unilaterally at this point in time. If we are to succeed, we need to reestablish our credibility, focus on essentials, and seek joint efforts with the EU and with the Arab League. Above all, we must do more than issue vacuous rhetoric about democracy and liberty and develop tangible plans to bring democracy and deal with human rights, establish a rule of law, focus on economic reform and demographic problems and not simplistic and unworkable slogans at a time when those breed nothing but distrust and the feeling we are somehow seeking to establish regimes friendly to us.

The last remark I would make is simply this. We can succeed through pragmatism. We can succeed by focusing on what we need to do, but if we continue to dwell in a climate of ideological illusions, no strategy can succeed and this government cannot function.

Note

[The prepared statement of Dr. Cordesman follows:] Prepared Statement of Dr. Anthony H. Cordesman The "Post Conflict" Lessons of Iraq and Afghanistan EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The current situation in Iraq and Afghanistan has exposed the fact that there is a serious danger in the very term "post conflict:" It reflects critical failures in American understanding of the world it faces in the 21st Century, and in the nature of asymmetric warfare and defense transformation: First, the US faces a generational period of tension and crisis in the Middle East and much of the developing world. There is no post conflict; there is rather a very different type of sustained "cold war." The "war on terrorism" is only part of a period of continuing tension and episodic crises in dealing with hostile extremist movements and regimes. At a minimum, the US faces decades of political and ideological conflict. More probably, the US and its allies will deal with constantly evolving and mutating threats. These will involve steadily more sophisticated political, psychological, and ideological attacks on the West. They will be sustained by massive economic problems and demographic pressures that create a virtual "youth explosion," and by the regional failures of secularism at both the political and ideological level. The "wars" in Iraq and Afghanistan are actually "battles," and the keys to victory lie in a sustained US campaign to help our allies in the region carry out political, economic, and social reform; in supporting efforts to create regional security and fight terrorism, and in checkmating and containing hostile movements and nations. Second, defeat or victory in this struggle will be shaped largely by the success of American diplomacy, deterrence, and efforts to create and sustain alliances that occur long before military action. They will also be shaped by US ability to reach out to the UN, international organizations, and moderates in the Islamic world and other challenged areas. US efforts to create favorable strategic outcomes in asymmetric conflicts and in conflicts involving any form of nation building must be conducted in a political environment shape by information operations on a continuing and global basis. Victory can only come through the equivalent of a constant program of political, psychological, and ideological "warfare" that is design to win a peace more than to aid in the military phases of a conflict. A climate of trust and cooperation must be established before any given clash or war takes place. Third, no matter how well the US adapts to these realities, it will have to make hard strategic choices which should be made well before it uses military force. The present contest between neoconservatives and neoliberals to see who can be the most self-deluded, intellectually ingenuous -- and use the most naive and moralistic rhetoric -- is not a valid basis for either war or dealing with its aftermath. Iraq and Afghanistan are both warnings of the complexity, cost, and time required to even attempt to change national political systems, economies, and social practices. Long before one considers any form of "nation building," one must decide whether such activity is practical and what the strategic cost-benefits really are. In many cases, it will not be worth the cost of trying to deal with the aftermath of overthrowing a regime and carrying out any form of occupation. When the objective is worth the cost, both the executive branch and Congress must honestly face the fact that the results will still be uncertain, that 5-10 years of effort may be required, and that the end result will often be years of occupation and low intensity conflict, as well as years of massive economic aid. Fourth, preparation and training for the security and nation building phases of a conflict require that planning, and the creation of specialized combat units and civilian teams with suitable resources and regional expertise to carry out the security and nation building missions, take place long before the combat phase begins. Success requires the battle plan and US military operations to be shaped to aid nation building and create security after the enemy's regime and armed forces are defeated. It requires the ability to make a transition to security and nation building activity as US forces advance during the combat phase and long and before "victory." It requires political campaigns designed to win hearts and minds of the peoples in the nation to begin before combat starts. Fifth, in more cases than not, the aftermath of conventional conflict is going to be low intensity conflict and armed nation building that will last months or years after a conventional struggle is over. As Iraq and Afghanistan show that it's the war after the war that counts, and which shapes US ability to win conflicts in any grand strategic sense. Sixth, the US cannot succeed through a mix of arrogance and ethnocentrism. The US is not the political, economic, and social model for every culture and every political system. It has much to contribute in helping trouble nations develop and evolve, but they must find their own path and it will not be ours, in most cases, economic and physical security; dealing with the educational and job problems created by demographic change, and creating basic human rights will be far more important that trying to rush towards "democracy" in nations with no history of pluralism, no or weak moderate political parties, and deep religious and ethnic divisions. Evolution tailored to the conditions and the needs of specific countries, can work; revolution will inevitably prove to lead to years of hardship and instability. The idea that the US can suddenly create examples of the kind of new political, economic, and social systems it wants in ways that will transform regions or cultures has always been little more than intellectual infantilism, and Iraq provides all the proof the US can ever afford to acquire.

Anthony Cordesman

If the US is to succeed in the conflicts that are likely to shape much of the 21st Century, it must learn from both its successes and mistakes in Iraq and Afghanistan. Strategic engagement requires an objective -- not an ideological -- assessment of the problems that must be dealt with, and of the size and cost of the effort necessary to achieve decisive grand strategic results. Neither a capabilities-based strategy nor one based on theoretical sizing contingencies is meaningful when real-world conflicts and well-defined contingencies require a strategy and force plan that can deal with reality on a country-by-country basis, rather than be based on ideology and theory. There is no alternative to "internationalism." There may be times we disagree with the UN or some of our allies, but our strategy must be based on seeking consensus wherever possible, on compromise when necessary, and on coalitions that underpin virtually every action we take. Great as US power is, it cannot substitute for coalitions and the effective use of international organizations, regional organizations, and NGOs. In order to lead, we must also learn to follow. We must never subordinate our vital national interests to others, but this will rarely be the issue. In practice, our challenge is to subordinate our arrogance to the end of achieving true partnerships, and to shape our diplomacy to creating lasting coalitions of the truly willing rather than coalitions of the pressured or intimidated. At the same time, armed nation building is a challenge only the US is currently equipped to meet. While allies, the UN, and NGOs can help in many aspects of security and nation building operations. They often cannot operate on the scale required to deal with nation building in the midst of serious low intensity combat. Deterrence and containment are more complex than at the time of the Cold War, but they still are critical tools and they too are dependent on formal and informal alliances. War must be an extension of diplomacy by other means, but diplomacy must be an extension of war by other means as well. US security strategy must be based on the understanding that diplomacy, peace negotiations, and arms control are also an extension of -- and substitute for -- war by other means. It is easy for a "superpower" to threaten force, but far harder to use it, and bluffs get called. Fighting should be a last resort, and other means must be used to limit the number of fights as much as possible. Military victory in asymmetric warfare can be virtually meaningless without successful nation building at the political, economic, and security levels. "Stabilization" or "Phase IV" operations are far more challenging than defeating conventional military forces. They can best be conducted if the US is prepared for immediate action after the defeat of conventional enemy forces. Both in Afghanistan and Iraq, the US wasted critical days, weeks, and months in engaging in a security effort before opposition movements could regroup or reengage. It left a power vacuum, rather than exploited one, and it was not prepared for nation building or the escalation of resistance once the enemy was "defeated." Force transformation cannot be dominated by technology; manpower skills, not technology, are the key. The military missions of low intensity combat, economic aid, civil-military relations, security, and information campaigns are manpower dominated and require skilled military manpower as well as new forms civil expertise in other Departments. Human intelligence can still be more important than technical collection, local experience and language skills are critical, and the ability to use aid dollars can be more important than the ability to use bullets. Simply adding troops or more weapons will not solve America's problems any more than trying to use technology to make US forces smaller and more cost-effective will. The missions that are emerging require extremely skilled troops with excellent area skills, far more linguists, and training in civic action and nation building as well as guerrilla warfare. Technology-based force transformation and the revolution in military affairs are tools with severe and sometimes crippling limits. The ability to provide Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (IS&R) coverage of the world is of immense value. It does not, however, provide the ability to understand the world, deal with complex political issues, and fight effectively in the face of terrorism, many forms of low intensity conflict and asymmetric warfare, and the need to deal with conflict termination and peace making or protect nation building. In practice, there may be a need to make far more effective use of legacy systems, and evolutionary improvements in weapons and technology, to support "humancentric" forms of military action requiring extensive human intelligence and area skills, high levels of training and experience, and effective leadership in not only defeating the enemy in battle but winning the peace. "Jointness" cannot simply be an issue for restructuring the US military, and is far more than a military problem. It must occur within the entire executive branch, and on a civil- military level as well as a military one. An advisory National Security Advisor is a failed National Security Advisor; effective leadership is required to force coordination on the US national security process. Unresolved conflicts between leaders like Secretary Powell, and Secretary Rumsfeld, the exclusion of other cabinet members from key tasks, insufficient review of military planning, and giving too much power to small elements within given departments, have weakened US efforts and needlessly alienated our allies. The creation of a large and highly ideological foreign policy staff in Vice President's office is a further anomaly in the interagency process. The US interagency process simply cannot function with such loosely defined roles, a lack of formal checks and balances, and a largely advisory National Security Advisor. "Jointness" must go far beyond the military; it must apply to all national security operations. Policy, analysis, and intelligence must accept the true complexity of the world, deal with it honestly and objectively, and seek "evolution" while opposing "revolution." The US cannot afford to rush into -- or stay in -- any conflict on ideological grounds. It cannot afford to avoid any necessary commitment because of idealism. What it needs is informed pragmatism. One simple rule of thumb is to stop over- simplifying and sloganizing -- particularly in the form of "mirror imaging" and assuming that "democratization" is the solution or even first priority for every country. The US needs to deal with security threats quietly and objective on a country-by-country and movement-by-movement basis. The US must also seek reform with the understanding that progress in economic reform, dealing with population problems, and improvements in human rights may often not only be more important in the near term than progress towards elections, but that "democracy" is purposeless, or actively destructive, unless viable political parties exist, political leaders have emerged capable of moving their nations forward toward moderation and economic development, and enough national consensus exists to allow different ethnic, ideological, and religious factions to function in a stable pluralistic structure. Finally, the US must act with the understanding that other societies and cultures may often find very different solutions to political, social, and economic modernization. Stabilization, armed nation building, and peacemaking require a new approach to organizing US government efforts. The integration of USAID into State has compounded the problems of US aid efforts which had previously transferred many functions to generic aid through the World Bank and IMF. There was no staff prepared, sized, and training to deal with nation building on this scale, or to formulate and administer the massive aid program required. Contractors were overburdened with large-scale contracts because these were easiest to grant and administer in spite of a lack of experience in functioning in a command economy and high threat environment. US government and contractor staff had to be suddenly recruited -- often with limited experience -- and generally for 3-12 month tours too short to ensure continuity in such missions. This should never happen again. Denial of the importance and scale of the mission before the event in no way prevents it from being necessary when reality intervenes. New capabilities are required within the National Security Council, the State Department, and the Department of Defense for security and nation building missions. It does not matter whether these are called post conflict, Phase IV, stabilization, or reconstruction missions. The US must be as well prepared to win a peace as it is prepared to win a war, It must have the interagency tools in place to deal with providing security after the termination of a conflict, and to support nation building in terms of creating viable political systems, economic stability and growth, effective military and security forces, and public information system and free press. This requires the National Security Council to have such expertise, the State Department to have operational capability to carry out such a mission, the Department of Defense to have the proper military capabilities, and other agencies to be ready to provide the proper support. The US must never again repeat its most serious mistakes in Iraq and Afghanistan. It must make security and nation building a fundamental part of the planning and execution of military operations directed at foreign governments from the start. A clear operational plan for such activity must be prepared before military operations begin, the costs and risks should be fully assessed, and the Congress should be fully consulted in the same way it is consulted before initiating military operations. The security and nation- building missions must begin as combat operations proceed, there must be no pause that creates a power vacuum, and the US must act from the start to ensure that the necessary resources for nation building are present. Our military strategy must give interoperability and military advisory efforts the same priority as jointness. The US needs to rethink its arms sales and security assistance policies. The US needs to pay far more attention to the social and economic needs of countries in the Middle East, and to work with other sellers to reduce the volume of sales. At the same time, it needs to work with regional powers to help them make the arms they do need effective and sustainable, create local security arrangements, and improve interoperability for the purposes of both deterrence and warfighting. The US needs to recast its security assistance programs to help nations fight terrorism and extremism more effectively, and do so in ways that do not abuse human rights or delay necessary political, social, and economic reforms. The US needs to organize for effective information campaigns while seeking to create regional and allied campaigns that will influence Arab and Islamic worlds. The US needs to revitalize its information efforts in a focused and effective way that takes advantage of tools like satellite broadcasting and the Internet while working directly in country. The US, however, can never be an Arab or Islamic country. It needs to work with its friends and allies in the region to seek their help in creating information campaigns that reject Islamic radicalism and violence, encourage terrorism, and support reform. The US should not try to speak for the Arabs or for Islam; it should help them speak for themselves. The US private sector and foreign direct investment should be integrated into the US security strategy and efforts to achieve evolutionary reform. The US has tended to emphasize sanctions over trade and economic contact in dealing with hostile or radical states, and assign too low a priority to helping the US private sector invest in friendly states. A "zero-based" review is needed of what the US government should do to encourage private sector activity in the Middle East. Current methods of intelligence collection and analysis, cannot guarantee adequate preparation for stabilization operations, properly support low intensity combat, or properly support the nation-building phase. The US needs to fundamentally reassess its approach to intelligence to support adequate planning for the combat termination, security, and nation building phases of asymmetric warfare and peacemaking operations. It is equally important that adequate tactical intelligence support be available from the beginning of combat operations to the end of security and nation building operations that provides adequate tactical human intelligence support, combined with the proper area expertise and linguistic skills. Technology can be a powerful tool, but it is an aid -- not a substitute -- for human skills and talents. New approaches are needed at the tactical and field level to creating effective teams for operations and intelligence. Tactical intelligence must operate as part of a team effort with those involved in counterinsurgency operations, the political and economic phases of nation building, and security and military advisory teams. It is particularly critical that both intelligence and operations directly integrate combat activity with civil-military relations efforts, US military police and security efforts, the use of economic aid in direct support of low intensity combat and security operations, the training of local security forces and their integration into the HUMINT effort, and the creation of effective information campaigns. Current methods of intelligence collection and analysis, and current methods of arms control and inspection, cannot guarantee an adequate understanding of the risks posed by proliferation. The US needs to fundamentally reassess the problems of intelligence on proliferation and the lessons Iraq provides regarding arms control. Far too much of the media coverage and outside analysis of the intelligence failures in Iraq has focused on the politics of the situation or implied that intelligence failed because it was improperly managed and reviewed. There were long standing problems in the way in which the CIA managed its counterproliferation efforts, and institutional biases that affected almost all intelligence community reporting and analysis on the subject. The US has agonizing decisions to make about defense resources. The fact that the current Future Year Defense Plan does not provide enough funds to allow the US cannot come close to fund both its planned force levels and force improvement plans is obvious. Everyone with any experience stopped believing in estimated procurement costs long ago. What is equally clear now, however, is that the US faces years of unanticipated conflicts, many involving armed peacemaking and nation building, and must rethink deterrence in terms of proliferation. This is not a matter of billions of dollars; it is a matter of several percent of the US GNP. Limit new strategic adventures where possible: The US needs to avoid additional military commitments and conflicts unless they truly serve vital strategic interests. The US already faces serious strategic overstretch, and nothing could be more dangerous than assuming that existing problems can be solved by adding new ones -- such as Syria or Iran. This means an emphasis on deterrence, containment, and diplomacy to avoid additional military commitments. It means a new emphasis on international action and allies to find substitutes for US forces. One final reality -- the image of a quick and decisive victory is almost always a false one, but it is still the image many Americans want and expect. One thousand or more dead in Iraq is hardly Vietnam, but it must be justified and explained, and explained honestly -- not in terms of the ephemeral slogans. The budget rises and supplements of the last few years are also likely to be the rule and not the exception. America may well have to spend another one percent of its GNP on sustained combat and international intervention overseas than any American politician is willing to admit.

America faces hard political choices, and they are going to take exceptional leadership and courage in both an election year and the decades to come. They require bipartisanship of a kind that has faded since the Cold War, and neither neo-conservative nor neo-liberal ideology can help. Moreover, America's think tanks and media are going to have to move beyond sound bites and simple solutions, just as will America's politicians and military planners. Put differently, it not only is going to be a very tough year, it is going to be a very tough decade. What is to Be Done: The Need for Near-Term Actions in Iraq and the Middle East

At this point, the US lacks good options in Iraq -- although it probably never really had them in the sense the Bush Administration sought. The option of quickly turning Iraq into a successful, free market democracy was never practical, and was as absurd a neoconservative fantasy as the idea that success in this objective would magically make Iraq an example that would transform the Middle East.

The key to the success the US can now hope to achieve is to set realistic objectives. In practice, these objectives are to create an Iraqi political structure that will minimize the risk of civil war, develop some degree of pluralism, and help the Iraqis take charge over their own economy.

This, in turn, means a major shift from trying to maintain US influence and leverage in a post sovereignty period to a policy where the US makes every effort to turn as much of the political, aid, and security effort over to Iraqis as soon as possible, and focuses on supporting the UN in creating the best compromises possible in creating Iraqi political legitimacy.

Other measures are: Accept the fact that a universal, nation-wide "security first" policy is stupid and impractical, and that the US needs to isolate and bypass islands of resistance, and focus on creating a legitimate Iraqi government that can unify Iraqis and allow nation building to work. This means relying on containment in the case of truly troubled and high insurgent areas, and focusing on security in friendly areas. Accept the fact there is no way to "drain the swamp." At this point, there simply is no way to eliminate cadres of insurgents or to disarm the most threatening areas. Fallujah and similar areas have too much popular support for the insurgents; there are too many arms that can be hidden, and too many points of vulnerability. This does not mean the US should give up fighting the insurgents or its efforts to disarm them. It does mean the US must accept that it cannot win in the sense of eliminating them or turning hostile areas into secure and disarmed areas. Rush aid to the Iraqi security forces and military seeking more friendly Arab aid in training and support, and provide as broad a base of Iraqi command as possible. Forget contract regulations on buying equipment. Deliver everything necessary and worry about the details later. Continue expanding the role of the Iraqi security forces. Understand that their loyalties will be divided, that putting them in charge of hostile areas does not mean they can be expected to do more than work out a modus vivendi with the insurgents, and that the end result will often be to create "no go" or limited access areas for Americans. The US cannot afford to repeat the Israeli mistake of assuming that any Iraqi authority in hostile areas can be counted on to provide security for Americans. Walk firmly and openly away from the losers in the IGC like Chalabi. Open up the political structure and deal with Shi'ite oppositionists, Sunni insurgents, ex-Ba'athists to the maximum degree possible. Drag in as many non-IGC leaders as possible, and give Ibrahimi's council idea the strongest possible support. Lower the US profile in shaping the political future of Iraq as much as possible and bring in as broad a UN international team as possible. Focus on all of the Shi'ites, not just the friendly ones. Make this a critical aspect of US diplomatic efforts. Let the Iraqi Shi'ites deal with Sadr and stay out of internal Shi'ite disputes, except to help insure security. Quietly reach out to Iran to create whatever kind of dialogue is possible. Push Sunni Arab states into helping Iraq's Sunnis and in helping to deal with the political issues involved by quietly making it clear that they will have to live with the aftermath of failure and that the US presence and commitment is not open- ended. Zero-base the failed contracting effort for FY2004 US aid to put Iraqi Ministries and officials in charge of the aid process as soon as possible, with Iraqis going into the field and not foreign contractors. Reprogram funds for a massive new CERP program to enable US military commanders to use dollars instead of bullets at every opportunity. Make the focus of US control over aid whether Iraqis spend the money honestly and effectively, and not on US control, plans, and objectives. Zero-base the US embassy plan to create the smallest staff practical of proven area experts, with the clear message to the Iraqis that not only are they going to be in charge, but non- performance means no US money and no continuation of US troops and support. End the image of a US end of an occupation after the occupation. Develop a long-term economic and military aid program as leverage to try to influence Iraqi decision making over time. Have the ministries manage the process, not USA1D or contractors. Focus on whether the Iraqi efforts are honest and produce real results. Do not try to use aid to force Iraq into US modes and methods. Accept the near total failure of US information operations. Stop giving all CPA/CJTF-7 press conferences, and put an Iraqi on the stage with the US spokesmen. Stop all procounsel-like press conferences where the US seems to be dictating. Make an Iraqi spokesman part of all dialogue, and give them the lead as soon as possible. Subordinate US and Coalition spokesmen as soon as possible to Iraqis in press conferences and briefings that are held in Arabic. Look at the broader failures of US policy in the region. Revitalize the Road Map and the Quartet in the light of Sharon's problems. Deal with the reality that there are two failed sets of political elites in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and that settlements should be unacceptable and not just terrorism. Abandon the Greater Middle East Initiative in its present form. Do not add another strategic and policy blunder to the present situation by appearing to call for regime change and seeking to dominate the region. Focus on a broad cooperative initiative worked out with the EU and where the EU puts pressure on the Arab League. Stop talking about region-wide democracy and liberty before there are responsible political parties and the other reforms necessary to make democracy work. Focus on a country-by-country approach to reform that considers human rights, economic welfare, and demographic issues to be at least as important as elections. Stress cooperation in "evolution;" not random efforts at "revolution." Prepare for the fact that nation building may still fail, and position the US to use the threat of withdrawal as leverage. Make it clear that the US can and will leave Iraq if the Iraqis do not reach agreement on an effective interim solution and if they do not proceed with reasonable unity to implement the UN plans.

Anthony Cordesman

The US position should be that the US is ready to help an Iraq that will help itself, and that it supports a true transfer of sovereignty. It should make it clear to Iraq and the world, however, that the US has a clear exit strategy. It has no interest in bases or control over Iraqi oil. It has no reason to stay if Iraq become unstable, devolves into civil war, or ends up under a strong man. The US can live with a weak or unstable Iraq, and Iraq still will have to export oil at market prices and will still be far less of a threat than Saddam's Iraq. * * * The Security Problems that Drive the Need for Continuing Engagement US intervention in Iraq -- like its role in the war in Afghanistan, the broader struggle against terrorism, and the Arab-Israel conflict -- must be seen in the context of continuing region-wide problems that will take at least 10-20 years to resolve, and which are spilling over into Central, South, and East Asia.

At the same time, the history of the modern Middle East shows that the way in which these forces will play out is normally highly national. No one can deny the reality that Arab and Islamic culture are powerful regional forces, or that the rhetoric of Arab unity still has powerful influence. The fact remains, however, that history shows most demographic, social, economic, and political problems play out at a national level. Solutions are found, or not found, one nation at a time, and there is little historical evidence since the time of Nasser that any one nation may serve as an example that transforms the others.

This scarcely means that short-term American success in Iraq is unimportant. It does mean that the forces shaping the region are far too powerful to play out quickly or be deeply influenced by a single case. Regardless of how well or how badly America does in Iraq -- and in the other three wars it is involved in it faces decades in which: Internal tensions will lead to violence in many states. Demographic momentum will increase demographic pressure on virtually every nation for at least the next three decades. Economic reform will come slowly, particularly in reaching the poor and badly educated. Political evolution may succeed over time, but there is -- as yet -- no foundation for sudden democracy or political reform. Stable political parties, the rule of law, human rights, willingness to compromise and give up power, and all the checks and balances that allow our republic to function, are still weak. Attempts at reform that outpace the ability of societies to generate internal change will lead to revolution and new -- and generally worse -- forms of authoritarianism or theocracy. Islamic extremism and terrorism may never come to dominate more than a handful of states, but they will mutate and endure for decades after Bin Laden and Al Qaida are gone and only sheer luck will prevent them from dominating at least some states or at least posing a critical challenge to some regimes. Anger and jealousy at the West and against the US in particular, may fade some if the US can find a way of helping to end the Arab-Israeli conflict, and can succeed enough in Iraq so that it is not perceived as a modern group of "crusaders" and an occupying enemy. This anger will not, however, disappear. It may well be compounded by the backlash from cultural conflicts over immigration and a steadily growing gap between the wealth of the West, and living standards in much of the MENA region. The fact that the future of Iraq and the Middle East will be as difficult, complex, and time consuming as its past, however, does not mean that the US can disengage from the region. Neither do the facts that US influence will be far more limited than we might like, that reform and change will be driven by local values and priorities, and that there will often be set backs and reversals.

America is not involved in a "clash of civilizations." It is, however, on the periphery of a clash within a civilization that affects their vital strategic interests, that can lash out in the form of terrorism and extremist attacks, and which deserves an active US role on moral and humanitarian grounds. Like the Cold War, the fact America faces what could be half a century of problems, and can neither foresee nor fully shape the future, in no way allows Americans to stand aside.

Like it or not, the US is also involved in a war of ideas and values in the Arab and Islamic worlds, and there is no easy dividing line between the Middle East, the general threat of Islamic extremism, the Arab-Israeli conflict, the war in Afghanistan, and instability in Central and South Asia. We will be a target regardless of how active we are in the region. The events of "9/11" have made part of the threat as obvious as the previous points have shown the need for outside aid and encouragement. Terrorism can reach anywhere in the world, and sometimes will.

In fairness to the Bush Administration, only one of the four wars the US now faces -- Iraq -- can be called "optional." Afghanistan came as the result of a major attack on the US. The problem of terrorism had arisen long before "9/11," and US involvement in Arab-Israeli conflicts is inevitable unless a true and lasting peace can be achieved or the US abandons an ally.

Even Iraq is "optional" largely in retrospect. The Bush and Blair governments may have politicized some aspects of the assessment of Iraqi proliferation, but virtually all experts felt the threat was more serious than it has proved to be. Moreover, it seems doubtful that Saddam's Hussein's Iraq would not have triggered another regional conflict at some point, just as it is doubtful that most of Iraq's present internal problems would not have surfaced at some point in the future even if the US, Britain, and Australia had never invaded.

The end result, however, is the US does not face the possibility of fighting two major regional contingencies the strategic focus of both the first Bush Administration and the Clinton Administration. The US instead faces the reality of actually fighting three low intensity conflicts and deep strategic involvement in a fourth. Moreover, the US still faces the risk of involvement in major regional conflicts. These risks include Iran, North Korea, Taiwan, and Columbia.

American military planning and strategy must be reevaluated in terms of this situation and many of the lessons that grow out of US experience in Iraq apply to the other wars as well: Strategic engagement requires an objective -- not an ideological -- assessment of the problems that must be dealt with, and of the size and cost of the effort necessary to achieve decisive grand strategic results. Neither a capabilities-based strategy nor one based on theoretical sizing contingencies is meaningful when real-world conflicts and well- defined contingencies require a strategy and force plan that can deal with reality, rather than theory. The US does not face a world where all problems were solved by the end of the Cold War. It does not face a world it can control or predict in the future. It must constantly adapt to the tasks at hand and those it can immediately foresee, not base its plans on hopes and strategic slogans. The US must pursue strategies and tactics that reflect the fact that many of the conflicts we are now involved in cannot be resolved by defeating a well defined enemy and involve political, social, and economic forces that will take years, if not decades to run their course. Iraq, at best, will be an unstable and evolving state for a decade after we leave. At worst it could be the subject of strong antiAmerican feelings in the Gulf and Arab world. The war in Afghanistan is mutating in ways that are beyond our control and nation building so far is failing. The war on terrorism is not a war against Al Qaida but against violent Islamic extremism driven by mass demographic, economic, and social forces in a region with limited political legitimacy. It may take a quarter of a century to deal with. The Israeli- Palestinian conflict seems years away from peace, and the last peace process has shown how tenuous and uncertain even a seemingly successful peace process can be. "Superpower" has always been a dangerous term. The resulting exaggeration of US capabilities and strategic focus on bipolar threats and "peer rivals" misses the point. The real problem is being a global power with limited resources -- a problem that Great Britain encountered throughout the 19th century. The world already is multipolar. There are severe limits to what the US can do, and how many places it can do it. Coalitions and alliances are more important than ever. There is no alternative to "internationalism." There may be times we disagree with the UN or some of our allies, but our strategy must be based on seeking consensus wherever possible, on compromise when necessary, and on coalitions that underpin virtually every action we take. Our rhetoric can no longer be simply American or be driven by domestic politics; it must take full account of the values and sensitivities of others. Our military strategy must give interoperability and military advisory efforts the same priority as jointness. In order to lead, we must also learn to follow. We must never subordinate our vital national interests to others, but this will rarely be the issue. In practice, our challenge is to subordinate our arrogance to the end of achieving true partnerships, and to shape our diplomacy to creating lasting coalitions of the truly willing rather than coalitions of the pressured and intimidated. Great as US power is, it cannot substitute for coalitions and the effective use of international organizations if at all possible. The term "superpower" may not be a misnomer, but it certainly does not imply US freedom of action. At the same time, most NGOs and international organizations are not organized for armed nation building and face severe -- if not crippling -- limitations if they are targeted in a low intensity combat environment or by large-scale terrorism. At the same time, armed nation building is a challenge only the US is currently equipped to meet. While allies, the UN, and NGOs can help in many aspects of security and nation building operations. They often cannot operate on the scale required to deal with nation building in the midst of serious low intensity combat. Armed nation building requires continuing US military and security efforts, and civil and economic aid programs. Security and nation building not only require new forms of US "rapid deployment," but major financial resources and the development of new approaches to providing economic aid and the necessary contract support. Deterrence and containment are more complex than at the time of the Cold War, but they still are critical tools and they too are dependent on formal and informal alliances. The need to create reliable structures of deterrence must also respond to the reality of proliferation. The problem no longer is how to prevent proliferation, but rather how to live with it. The US needs to develop more mobile forces that are better tailored to rapid reaction, power projection in areas where the US has limited basing and facilities, and capable of dealing better with the kind of low intensity combat dominated by terrorists or hostile movements that require an emphasis on light forces and HUMINT, rather than heavy forces and high technology. Military intervention cannot, however, be the dominant means of exercising US military power. The problem is to find better ways to use the threat of US military power to deter and contain asymmetric conflicts, and new kinds of political and economic threats. War avoidance is just as important in the post-Cold War era as it was during it. War must be an extension of diplomacy by other means, but diplomacy must be an extension of war by other means as well. US security strategy must be based on the understanding that diplomacy, peace negotiations, and arms control are also an extension of -- and substitute for -- war by other means. It is easy for a "superpower" to threaten force, but far harder to use it, and bluffs get called. Fighting should be a last resort, and other means must be used to limit the number of fights as much as possible. Military victory in asymmetric warfare can be virtually meaningless without successful nation building at the political, economic, and security levels. These "stabilization" or "Phase IV" operations are far more challenging, however, than defeating conventional military forces. They also probably can best be conducted if the US is prepared for immediate action after the defeat of conventional enemy forces. Both in Afghanistan and Iraq, the US wasted critical days, weeks, and months in engaging in a security effort before opposition movements could regroup or reengage. It left a power vacuum, rather than exploited one, and it was not prepared for nation building or the escalation of resistance once the enemy was "defeated." The Quadrennial Defense Review was right in stressing the risk asymmetric warfare posed to the US in spite of its conventional strength. It failed, however, to look beyond the narrow definition of the problems of direct combat to the problems of containment and deterrence, conflict termination, and armed nation building. Much of today's problems in Iraq stem from the fact that the Defense Department and the Bush Administration were as badly prepared for conflict termination, nation building, and low intensity threats after the defeat of Saddam's regular military forces, as they were well prepared to carry out that defeat. The price tag also involves more than dollars and includes some share of responsibility for every US body bag being flown out of Iraq. To a lesser degree, the same is true of the situation in Afghanistan, and the problem is scarcely new. The US failed in both nation building and Vietnamization in Vietnam. It failed in Lebanon in the early 1980s. It failed in Haiti, and it failed in Somalia. The stakes, level of involvement, and the costs to the US may have been far lower in some of these cases, but the fact remains that the US failed. Force transformation cannot be dominated by technology; manpower skills, not technology, are the key. The Afghan War led to an emphasis on a method of using airpower that could not secure the country or deal with Taliban and Al Qaida forces that quickly mutated and dispersed. The Iraq War began with heavy conventional land forces and soon became a heavy air-land battle. It was all airpower, armored, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (IS&R) and precision through late April. As such, it showed that high technology forces could decisively defeat lower technology conventional forces almost regardless of force numbers and the kinds of force ratios that were critical in past conflicts. Yet, the US has since been forced to virtually reinvent the way in which it uses its forces since the fall of Saddam's regime. Technology and netcentric war -- and an emphasis on destroying enemy hard targets and major weapons systems -- failed when the problem became conflict termination, armed nation building, and low intensity warfare. The military missions of low intensity combat, economic aid, civil-military relations, security, and information campaigns are manpower dominated and require skilled military manpower as well as new forms civil expertise in other Departments. Human intelligence can still be more important than technical collection, local experience and language skills are critical, and the ability to use aid dollars can be more important than the ability to use bullets. This requires a fundamental reexamination of US force plans and force transformation concepts. For decades, the US has sought to use technology to substitute for defense spending, for force numbers, and for manpower numbers. During the conventional phases of both the Afghan and Iraq conflicts, suggestions were made for further force and manpower cuts and further efforts to achieve savings in defense spending by acquiring transformational technology. Technology has been, is, and will be critical to American power and military success. It is extremely questionable, however, that the US has any credible way of using technology to make further force and manpower cuts without taking unacceptable risks. Creating the proper mix of capabilities for asymmetric warfare, low-intensity conflict, security and Phase IV operations, and nation building requires large numbers of skilled and experience personnel. It is manpower intensive, and technology is at best an aid to -- not a substitute for -- force size and manpower numbers. This problem is further compounded by the fact that the US does not have a single major transformational weapons system or technology under development which now seems likely to be delivered on time, with the promised effectiveness, and at even half of the unit life cycle cost originally promised. The US has made little meaningful progress in the effective planning and management of the development and procurement of advanced military technology in the last quarter century -- at least in the sense of being able to integrate it into realistic budgets and force plans. While the US has shown it can transform, it has not shown it can plan and manage transformation. For at least the next half decade, the US must also deal with the backlog of maintenance and service requirements created by its operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, and with the fact it must retain and modernize far more of its so-called legacy systems that it now plans. Technology-based force transformation and the revolution in military affairs are tools with severe and sometimes crippling limits. The ability to provide Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (IS&R) coverage of the world is of immense value. It does not, however, provide the ability to understand the world, deal with complex political issues, and fight effectively in the face of terrorism, many forms of low intensity conflict and asymmetric warfare, and the need to deal with conflict termination and peace making or protect nation building. The ability to use precision weapons, helicopter mobility, and armor to destroy enemy conventional forces and blow fixed targets up "24/7" is also of great tactical value, but it does not mean that defeating enemy conventional forces really wins wars. The US is as bad at knowing what to blow up in terms of strategic targeting and many aspects of interdiction bombing as it was in World War II. There also are good reasons to question whether many aspects of "Netcentric" warfare are little more than a conceptual myth, concealing the military equivalent of the "Emperor's new clothes" in a dense forest of incomprehensible PowerPoint slides than cannot be translated into procurable systems, workable human interfaces, and affordable Future Year Defense Plans. In practice, there may be a need to make far more effective use of legacy systems, and evolutionary improvements in weapons and technology, to support "humancentric" forms of military action requiring extensive human intelligence and area skills, high levels of training and experience, and effective leadership in not only defeating the enemy in battle but winning the peace. This, in turn, means creating US military forces with extensive experience in civil-military action and which can use aid as effectively as weapons -- dollars as well as bullets. It also means redefining interoperability to recognize that low technology allied forces can often be as, or more effective, as high technology US forces in such missions. Simply adding troops or more weapons will not solve America's problems any more than trying to use technology to make US forces smaller and more cost-effective will. Manpower quality is at least as important as manpower quantity, and they require suitable increases in the strength of military and civil units. The problem is not boots on the ground, but the capability of those wearing the boots. The missions that are emerging require extremely skilled troops with excellent area skills, far more linguists, human intelligence experts, experts in urban and low intensity warfare, military police, security experts and experts with training in civic action and nation building. Personnel are require who can train local personnel in security, police functions, and well as guerrilla warfare. Many of these personnel and forces, however, would have little value in a Korean or Taiwan contingency. The US needs to pause and think out the issue of quality before it does anything about force quantity. The fact is that 200,000 under-trained troops in Iraq would not be better than 150,000, and having F-22s instead of F-15s would be pointless. "Jointness" cannot simply be an issue for restructuring the US military, and is far more than a military problem. It must occur within the entire executive branch, and on a civil- military level as well as a military one. The Iraq War has shown that the end result of allowing small cadres in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Vice President, and National Security Council was to allow ideological cadres to bypass the US national security process in ways that led to critical failures in key strategic tasks like conflict termination and nation building. More broadly, similar failures have occurred in virtually every aspect of US strategic engagements and diplomacy, including critical areas like counterproliferation and the Arab-Israel peace process. To date, this lack of "jointness" in the Bush Administration's national security team has had many of the same effects as a similar Department of Defense-driven breakdown in the interagency process during the period in which critical decision were made to carry out a massive US building up in Vietnam. An advisory National Security Advisor is a failed National Security Advisor; effective leadership is required to force coordination on the US national security process. Unresolved conflicts between leaders like Secretary Powell, and Secretary Rumsfeld, the exclusion of other cabinet members from key tasks, insufficient review of military planning, and giving too much power to small elements within given departments, have weakened US efforts and needlessly alienated our allies. The creation of a large and highly ideological foreign policy staff in Vice President's office is a further anomaly in the interagency process. The US interagency process simply cannot function with such loosely defined roles, a lack of formal checks and balances, and a largely advisory National Security Advisor. "Jointness" must go far beyond the military; it must apply to all national security operations. Policy, analysis, and intelligence must accept the true complexity of the world, deal with it honestly and objectively, and seek "evolution" while opposing "revolution." The US is involved in four very complex wars, each of which requires the most objective intelligence and analysis that is possible. There is no room for ideological sound bites or overly simplistic solutions, and force transformation cannot cut some mystical Gordian knot. The US cannot afford to rush into -- or stay in -- any conflict on ideological grounds. It cannot afford to avoid any necessary commitment because of idealism. What it needs is informed pragmatism. One simple rule of thumb is to stop over-simplifying and sloganizing -- particularly in the form of "mirror imaging" and assuming that "democratization" is the solution or even first priority for every country. The US needs to deal with security threats quietly and objective on a country-by-country and movement-by-movement basis. The US must seek reform with the understanding that progress in economic development, raising the living standards of the ordinary citizen, dealing with population problems, and improvements in human rights may often not only be more important in the near term than progress towards elections, but that "democracy" is purposeless, or actively destructive, unless viable political parties exist, political leaders have emerged capable of moving their nations forward toward moderation and economic development, and enough national consensus exists to allow different ethnic, ideological, and religious factions to function in a stable pluralistic structure. Finally, the US must act with the understanding that other societies and cultures may often find very different solutions to political, social, and economic modernization. The US cannot afford to carelessly abuse words like `Islam" and "Arab," or ignore the sensitivities of key allies like South Korea in dealing with the threat from the North. It cannot afford to alienate its European allies or lose support in the UN by throwing nations like "Iran" into an imaginary "axis of evil." It needs nations like Saudi Arabia as an ally in the struggle against movements like Al Qaida, and it cannot afford to confuse terrorist movements driven by different and largely neo-Salafi beliefs with terms like Wahhabi, any more than it can afford to act as if Al Qaida somehow dominated a far more complex mix of different threats. The US needs a nuanced pragmatism that deals with each nation and each threat individually and in proportion to the threat it really presents. It must give regional and other allies a proper role and influence in decision-making rather than seek to bully them through ideology and rhetoric. It needs to engage the checks and balances of the fully interagency process, of area and intelligence professionals, and seek a bipartisan approach with proper consultation with the Congress. Stabilization, armed nation building, and peacemaking require a new approach to organizing US government efforts. It is not clear when the US will have to repeat stabilization and nation building activities on the level of Iraq. It is clear that the civilian agencies of the US government were not adequately prepared to analyze and plan the need for the political, security, aid, and information programs needed in Iraq, and to provide staff with suitable training and ability to operate in a high threat environment. The State Department was prepared to analyze the challenges, but lacked both planning and operational capability and staff prepared to work in the field in a combat environment. The integration of USAID into State has compounded the problems of US aid efforts which had previously transferred many functions to generic aid through the World Bank and IMF. There was no staff prepared, sized, and training to deal with nation building on this scale, or to formulate and administer the massive aid program required. Contractors were overburdened with large-scale contracts because these were easiest to grant and administer in spite of a lack of experience in functioning in a command economy and high threat environment. US government and contractor staff had to be suddenly recruited -- often with limited experience -- and generally for 3-12 month tours too short to ensure continuity in such missions. It is a tribute to the CPA and all those involved that so much could be done in spite of the lack of effective planning and preparation before the end of major combat operations against Iraq's conventional forces. The fact remains, however, that this should never happen again. Denial of the importance and scale of the mission before the event in no way prevents it from being necessary when reality intervenes. New capabilities are required within the National Security Council, the State Department, and the Department of Defense for security and nation building missions. It does not matter whether these are called post conflict, Phase IV, stabilization, or reconstruction missions. The US must be as well prepared to win a peace as it is prepared to win a war. It must have the interagency tools in place to deal with providing security after the termination of a conflict, and to support nation building in terms of creating viable political systems, economic stability and growth, effective military and security forces, and public information system and free press. This requires the National Security Council to have such expertise, the State Department to have operational capability to carry out such a mission, the Department of Defense to have the proper military capabilities, and other agencies to be ready to provide the proper support. The US must never again repeat its most serious mistakes in Iraq and Afghanistan. It must make security and nation building a fundamental part of the planning and execution of military operations directed at foreign governments from the start. A clear operational plan for such activity must be prepared before military operations begin, the costs and risks should be fully assessed, and the Congress should be fully consulted in the same way it is consulted before initiating military operations. The security and nation- building missions must begin as combat operations proceed, there must be no pause that creates a power vacuum, and the US must act from the start to ensure that the necessary resources for nation building are present. The US needs to rethink its arms sales and security policies. The US still is selling massive amounts of arms to the region with more attention to the dollar value of sales than to their impact on local societies, the need for interoperability and effectiveness, and changes in security needs that increasingly focus on internal security. The US signed $13.3 billion worth of new arms sales agreements with Middle Eastern countries during 1995-1998, of total sales to the region of $30.8 billion. Most are still in delivery or early conversion and require extensive US advisory and contract support to be effective. The US signed another $17.2 billion during 1999-2002, out of a worldwide total of $35.9 billion. All of these latter sales require extensive US advisory and contract support. At present, almost all of these sales are going to countries with poorly integrated arms buys, and low levels of readiness and sustainability. They are also being made in ways that offer only limited interoperability with US forces. The sheer volume of these sales also does as much to threaten regional security as it does to aid it. The US needs to pay far more attention to the social and economic needs of countries in the Middle East, and to work with other sellers to reduce the volume of sales. At the same time, it needs to work with regional powers to help them make the arms they do need effective and sustainable, create local security arrangements, and improve interoperability for the purposes of both deterrence and warfighting. At the same time, most countries now face internal security threats that are more serious than external threats. The US needs to recast its security assistance programs to help nations fight terrorism and extremism more effectively, and do so in ways that do not abuse human rights or delay necessary political, social, and economic reforms. The US needs to organize for effective information campaigns while seeking to create regional and allied campaigns that will influence Arab and Islamic worlds. The integration of the US Information Agency (USIA) into the State Department, and major cutbacks in US information and public diplomacy efforts, have deprived the US of a critical tool that works best when regional efforts are combined with well-funded and well-staffed efforts at the embassy and local level. The US needs to revitalize its information efforts in a focused and effective way that takes advantage of tools like satellite broadcasting and the Internet while working directly in country. The US, however, can never be an Arab or Islamic country. It needs to work with its friends and allies in the region to seek their help in creating information campaigns that reject Islamic radicalism and violence, encourage terrorism, and support reform. The US should not try to speak for the Arabs or for Islam, it should help them speak for themselves. The US private sector and foreign direct investment should be integrated into the US security strategy. Far too often, the US ignores the role that the US private sector can and must play in achieving evolutionary reform. The US has tended to emphasize sanctions over trade and economic contact in dealing with hostile or radical states, and assign too low a priority to helping the US private sector invest in friendly states. A "zero-based" review is needed of what the US government should do to encourage private sector activity in the Middle East. The US has agonizing decisions to make about defense resources. In spite of major recent increases in defense spending, even the present force plan is unsustainable in the face of the combined funding burdens of operations, modernization, and transformation. The fact that the current Future Year Defense Plan does not provide enough funds to allow the US cannot come close to fund both its planned force levels and force improvement plans is obvious. Everyone with any experience stopped believing in estimated procurement costs long ago. What is equally clear now, however, is that the US faces years of unanticipated conflicts, many involving armed peacemaking and nation building, and must rethink deterrence in terms of proliferation. This is not a matter of billions of dollars; it is a matter of several percent of the US GNP. The US must limit new strategic adventures where possible: The US needs to avoid additional military commitments and conflicts unless they truly serve vital strategic interests. Regardless of the outcome of the reevaluation of force transformation recommended earlier, it will be two to three years at a minimum before the US can create major new force elements and military capabilities, and some change will take at least five to ten years. The US already faces serious strategic overstretch, and nothing could be more dangerous than assuming that existing problems can be solved by adding new ones -- such as Syria or Iran. This means an emphasis on deterrence, containment, and diplomacy to avoid additional military commitments. It means a new emphasis on international action and allies to find substitutes for US forces.

Anthony Cordesman

Current methods of intelligence collection and analysis, cannot guarantee adequate preparation for stabilization operations, properly support low intensity combat, or properly support the nation-building phase. The US needs to fundamentally reassess its approach to intelligence to support adequate planning for the combat termination, security, and nation building phases of asymmetric warfare and peacemaking operations. The same jointness is needed in the intelligence community effort to prepare for asymmetric warfare that is needed in the overall interagency process, and to ensure that the analysis given to policymakers, planners, and operators fully presents the problems and challenges that must be dealt with in stabilization and armed nation building. There must never again be a case in which the Department of Defense filters or rejects community-wide analysis or priority is given to intelligence for military operations in ways that prevent adequate intelligence analysis and support being ready for the stabilization and nation-building phase.

It is equally important that adequate tactical intelligence support be available from the beginning of combat operations to the end of security and nation building operations that provides adequate tactical human intelligence support, combined with the proper area expertise and linguistic skills. Technology can be a powerful tool, but it is an aid -- not a substitute -- for the human skills and talents necessary to support low intensity combat, expand the role of tactical human intelligence, and do so in the context of supporting aid efforts and civil military relations, as well as combat operations. At the same time, civilian intelligence agency efforts need to be recast to support nation building and security operations.

Iraq and Afghanistan have also shown that tactical military intelligence must operate as part of a team effort with those involved in counterinsurgency operations, the political and economic phases of nation building, and security and military advisory teams.

It is particularly critical that both intelligence and operations directly integrate combat activity with civil-military relations efforts, US military police and security efforts, the use of economic aid in direct support of low intensity combat and security operations, the training of local security forces and their integration into the HUMINT effort, and the creation of effective information campaigns. In the future, this may require a far better integration of military and civil efforts in both intelligence and operations than has occurred in either Iraq or Afghanistan.

It may not be as apparent in the US as it is in the Arab world, but several weeks of travel in the region indicate that the course of the fighting in Fallujah and Najaf are perceived in much of Iraq and the Arab world as a serious US defeat. This is not simply a matter of shattering an aura of US military invincibility; it is a growing shift in political attitudes and in the prospects for political change in Iraq.

It is also all too clear that any idea the US is engaging in "post-conflict operations" is little more than a farce. The shock of Saddam's fall produced a brief period of near paralysis in the Iraqi opposition to the US and the Coalition. By August 2003, however, a state of low intensity conflict clearly existed in Iraq, and the level of this conflict has escalated ever since January of 2004.

In fact, this follows a pattern that makes the very term "post- conflict operations" a stupid and intellectually dishonest oxymoron. As we have seen in Afghanistan, Somalia, Lebanon, Cambodia, and many other cases, asymmetric wars do not really end. Nation building must take place on an armed basis without security and in the face of adaptive and innovative threats. The reality is that this is a far more difficult aspect of "transformation" than defeating organized military resistance, and one for which the US is not yet prepared.

Senior US officials have been in a continuing state of denial about the depth of support for this conflict. They have misused public opinion polls like the Zogby and ABC polls and they have ignored the fact that the ABC poll conducted in February found that roughly two thirds of Sunnis and one third of Shi'ites opposed the US and British invasion and found it to be humiliating to Iraq. Senior US officials have ignored the fact that roughly one-third of Sunnis and two-thirds of Shi'ites support violence against the Coalition and want the Coalition forces to leave Iraq immediately. They talk about a small minority of Iraqis because only a small minority have so far been actively violent -- a reality in virtually every insurgent campaign and one that in no way is a measure of support for violence.

A year into the "war after the war," far too many US officials are still in a state of denial as to the political realities in the Middle East. They do not see just how much the perceived US tilt towards Israel and Sharon alienates Iraqis and Arabs in general. They do not admit the near total failure of US information operations, and the fact that Iraqis watch hostile Arab satellite TV stations and rely on papers filled with misinformation and conspiracy theories.

They talk about "success" in aid programs measured in terms of contracts signed, fiscal obligations, and gross measures of performance like megawatts; not about actual progress on the ground the kind that can really win hearts and minds. They cannot understand that US calls for "liberty," "democracy," and "reform" have become coupled to images of US interference in Arab regimes, the broad resentment of careless negative US references to Islam and Arab culture, and conspiracy theories about control of Iraqi oil, "neoimperialism," and serving "Zionist" interests.

The fact these perceptions are not fair is as irrelevant as US tactical military victories that are often political defeats. The present mix of armed nation building and low intensity conflict takes place in a region shaped by such perceptions. This is why the photographic evidence of US mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners is so devastating. For many in the region, it validates every criticism of the US, and vastly strengthens the hand of Islamic extremists, Sunni insurgents, Shi'ite insurgents, and hostile media and intellectuals in both the Arab world and Europe.

The time has come to face this reality. There was never a time when neoconservative fantasies about the Middle East were anything but dangerous illusions. Those fantasies have killed and wounded thousands of American and Coalition allies, and now threaten the US with a serious strategic defeat. It may not be possible to avoid some form of defeat, but the US must make every effort to do so, and this means junking the neoconservatism within the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Vice President's office, and the NSC and coming firmly to grips with reality.

The US is scarcely defeated in either a military or a political sense, but it is suffering serious reversals. The Iraqi insurgents do not have to win battles in a tactical sense; they merely have to put up a determined enough resistance, with enough skill and courage, to show their fellow Iraqis and the Arab world that they are capable of a determined, strong and well-organized effort. Many of their fellow Iraqis will perceive any determined resistance as a "victory" against the world's only superpower.

If the Sunnis in Fallujah, and Sadr in Najaf, continue to show they can survive a US military threat -- and that they can force the US and Coalition into a posture of containment and compromise -- they will be able to change the rules of the game in nation building as well as in the fighting. They will score a major victory at the political level while they effectively create "no go" areas and sanctuaries. They will do so even if they do have to end open confrontation and turnover some weapons and activists.

Solutions like the "Fallujah Brigade" are de facto defeats for the US in both military and political terms. They signal a coming struggle for power in which hostile elements of both Arab Sunnis and Shi'ites will be much stronger than the US and its allies previously estimated. They also create a national political climate in which the Coalition is perceived as lacking any clear plan or goals, the Interim governing Council is divided and lacking in legitimacy, the Iraqi security forces are seen as ineffective, and the UN becomes both a tool for insurgent pressure and a potential target.

? The fighting during April 2004 has also created a climate in which the US and its allies are seen as being in the middle of a war of attrition that they are losing. The totals of US, allied, and friendly Iraqi killed and wounded have already reached the point where Iraqi insurgents and foreign extremists have every reason to perceive the Coalition as politically and strategically vulnerable -- an image reinforced by the steady loss of support for the war and a continued effort in Iraq in US and allied public opinion polls.

Anthony Cordesman

Hostile Iraqi losses to date can be sustained indefinitely. As a result, the mix of Coalition and friendly Iraqi casualties, sabotage and paralysis of the aid process, and growing political uncertainty at the edge of the transfer of sovereignty act as a virtual road map for future battles in Iraq and later battles against US military and nation building operations in the rest of the world. The end result is to show that an Arab asymmetric force can delay and possibly checkmate the strongest Western military power that Arabs are not weak or passive, and that Arabs can "take back their homeland."

It will take a new public opinion poll to determine just how much the "perfect storm" of negative events since February has changed opinion inside Iraq, but it seems almost certain that events in Fallujah and dealing with Sadr have sharply cut support for the US among moderate Iraqi Arabs. (The fact the Kurds have nowhere else to go -- and have to be friendly -- means they should be largely excluded from polls analyzing how Iraqi attitudes are affecting the war.)

It seems equally certain that this drop is compounded by the flood of Arab images of Iraqi civilians suffering in the fighting, the images of mistreatment of Iraqi POWs, and newscasts that claim every US use of a modern weapon is a careless use of excessive force. These images are clearly having a powerful impact throughout the Sunni world -- strongly reinforced by Israeli military action and statements that make the constant Arab media linkage between the US and Israeli occupations steadily more damaging. Furthermore, similar images are being portrayed in Iran and it seems likely that Iranian opinion is turning away from the US.

The last few weeks of resistance have sharply undercut the already low political legitimacy of the CPA, the US approach to nation building, and the Interim Governing Council. Iraqis and the region perceive the US as lacking any credible plan of action and as being "forced" to turn to the UN.

The "pro-American" Iraqis have been divided and weak, and have been unable to rally the Iraqi people. The end result is that the US ability to convey "legitimacy" has been sharply undercut at precisely the time the US needs legitimacy for its June 30 turnover. In addition, US ties to some members of the IGC are becoming steadily more damaging -- particularly the image of US ties to "losers" like Chalabi.

-TERRORIST THREAT INTO A REAL ONE Iraq has become a natural battleground for Islamic insurgents and "volunteers" of all persuasions. There is no meaningful evidence that Iraq was a focus of terrorism before the war, or a primary focus early in the fighting. Over the last few months, however, the outside presence and support for insurgents has increased.

Over the last few weeks, it has become all too clear that such support is paying off well in terms of American and allied casualties, and in boosting the image of Islamic resistance as being able to take on the US. Iraq was never a magnet for terrorism before the war, and only a limited magnet before Fallujah and Sadr. It has become a major magnet now.

Much of the aid and economic development program has been paralyzed, and the economic security of the Shi'ite areas and oil exports is now far more at risk. The US reliance on contractors, rather than Iraqis, makes everyone involved in aid and reconstruction a natural target. The use of contract security has created the image of mercenary forces, and efforts to win hearts and minds in troubled areas have essentially collapsed, as they have in some formerly "friendly areas" as well.

Anthony Cordesman

The end result is close to a no win situation for the US: Any negotiated solution effectively legitimizes the Sunni and Shi'ite hard- line opposition, while weakening the IGC -- exposing the fact the US is now trying to turnover power to "mystery men" on June 30, who cannot have legitimacy because they have no identity.

This compounds the problems inherent in the Ibrahimi approach, which effectively says that the government of June 30 will not have legitimacy until a popular council takes place, and that a real government and constitutional base must be voted on by the Iraqis and not from the legacy left by the CPA/IGC.

In effect, the period of political illegitimacy or non-legitimacy is now extended long beyond June 30th, and the period in which Iraqis must compete for power by both political and violent means will now extend through all of 2004 and much of 2005.

Anthony Cordesman

This political struggle has several key characteristics: The game has no clear rules. There are "maybe" milestones and objectives that are undefined. Federalism and power sharing is up in the air, and even if an interim allocation of power to a President, Prime Minister, and Vice Premiers takes place, it is only for an interim period and does not affect struggles over money, power, land, etc. The ethnic divisions between Arab, Kurd, Turcoman, and other minorities are not really resolved. The same is true of divisions between Sunni and Shi'ite, and religious and secular. There is no economic underpinning for political stability, and far too many jobs are dependent on aid and paid security positions. Iraq now has a "bubble" economy, not real reconstruction, and Iraqis know this. Some 70% expressed fear over their future job security in the ABC poll in February. No Iraqi leaders now have broad popular political support in public opinion polls, including Sistani. Most have powerful negatives -- often more negative than positive. There is usually intense competition within given factions, and leaders have a growing incentive to show their independence from the Coalition. A near political vacuum exists where there are strong incentives to seek support from ethnic or religious factions and demagogue the way to victory. No political party has significant popular support, and nearly 70% of Iraqis opposed political parties in the ABC poll in February, largely because of the heritage of the Baath. More Iraqis support a strong leader as an interim solution than "democracy," although no one is clear on who such a strong leader will be. No Iraqi leader is as yet organizing for the series of elections to come, aggressively trying to create popular political parties, or making efforts to capture the media. The peaceful political struggles necessary to create the groundwork for democracy are being subordinated to political struggles within the IGC, efforts to game Ibrahimi's political efforts, and challenges from the outside. Many potential Iraqi leaders have every reason to fear losing in the coming struggle for power, and no clear plans exist to coopt the Sunni insurgents and Shi'ite "Sadrs" into the system. Hostile areas and factions are largely excluded from the political process under the illusion they are too small to really matter. The US still seems to be trying to stage-manage the creation of a secular democracy of friendly moderates, but true legitimacy is the government Iraqis want, not the one the US and Western reformers want. There is no meaningful chance of "security first." The political and nation building process will almost certainly have to go on in the midst of terrorism and low intensity conflict through 2006. Elections will be extremely difficult, hostile areas will continue to exist, and governance will be under continued attack. The rush to create Iraqi armed forces and security forces suitable for a post conflict Iraq has left tens of thousands of untrained and poorly equipped men recruited locally on an ethnic, religious, and tribal basis. No clear plan seems to exist for giving them the training, equipment, and facilities they need on a timely basis. The rule of law is erratic and often local. Politics may fascinate politicians, but Iraqis live with governance. The creation of 25-27 functioning ministries, governorates, and urban governments will affect every aspect of daily life and security. The plans to create effective governance will lag far behind the transfer of sovereignty on June 30 -- and extend well into the winter of 2004 and beyond.

In retrospect, the US might have been far better off to act decisively in hot pursuit in both Fallujah and in dealing with Sadr. Certainly, the military effort and the causalities would have been far smaller, the political momentum of support for the insurgents would not have had time to build, and any criticism would have been tempered with reluctance to challenge the US again. That was then, however, and this is now.

The US can defeat any given group of Iraqi insurgents and largely secure any area it occupies with sufficient strength. However, any military solution that involves serious combat with a Sunni or Shi'ite faction is now likely to be the kind of "victory" that creates a new firestorm over excessive force, civilian casualties, and collateral damage. At the same time, the US cannot hope to use such combat to kill or arrest all of the Sunni, Shi'ite, and foreign insurgents that exist now and many tactical victories are likely to create more insurgents than they destroy. As the US learned in Vietnam, tactical military victory without political victory is large irrelevant.

As in Vietnam, the US also cannot afford to loose the largest ethnic faction. In Vietnam, the US arguably lost the war when it lost the Buddhists. In Iraq, the key is to avoid losing the Shi'ites. Any US arrest or killing of Sadr at this point means creating an instant martyr that will have a powerful impact on many young Shi'ites in Iraq, and militant Shi'ites all over the world -- pushing them towards some form of alignment with Sunni insurgents. A serious fight from a now cold start against a well-organized resistance in Najaf would be a disaster, triggering much broader Shi'ite alignments against the US.

Anthony Cordesman

At this point, the US lacks good options -- although it probably never really had them in the sense the Bush Administration sought. The option of quickly turning Iraq into a successful, free market democracy was never practical, and was as absurd a neoconservative fantasy as the idea that success in this objective would magically make Iraq an example that would transform the Middle East.

Anthony Cordesman

The key to the success the US can now hope to achieve is to set realistic objectives. In practice, these objectives are to create an Iraqi political structure that will minimize the risk of civil war, develop some degree of pluralism, and help the Iraqis take charge over their own economy.

Anthony Cordesman

This, in turn, means a major shift from trying to maintain US influence and leverage in a post sovereignty period to a policy where the US makes every effort to turn as much of the political, aid, and security effort over to Iraqis as soon as possible, and focuses on supporting the UN in creating the best compromises possible in creating Iraqi political legitimacy.

Anthony Cordesman

The US should not abandon Iraq, but rather abandon the effort to create an Iraq in its own image. Other measures are: Accept the fact that a universal, nation-wide "security first" policy is stupid and impractical. The US needs to isolate and bypass islands of resistance, and focus on creating a legitimate Iraqi government that can unify Iraqis and allow nation building to work. This means relying on containment in the case of truly troubled and high insurgent areas, and focusing on security in friendly areas. Accept the fact there is no way to "drain the swamp." At this point, there simply is no way to eliminate cadres of insurgents or to disarm the most threatening areas. Fallujah and similar areas have too much popular support for the insurgents, there are too many arms that can be hidden, and too many points of vulnerability. This does not mean the US should give up fighting the insurgents or its efforts to disarm them. It does mean the US must accept that it cannot win in the sense of eliminating them or turning hostile areas into secure and disarmed areas. Rush aid to the Iraqi security forces and military seeking more friendly Arab aid in training and support, and provide as broad a base of Iraqi command as possible. Forget contract regulations on buying equipment. Deliver everything necessary and worry about the details later. Continue expanding the role of the Iraqi security forces. Understand that their loyalties will be divided, that putting them in charge of hostile areas does not mean they can be expected to do more than work out a modus vivendi with the insurgents, and that the end result will often be to create "no go" or limited access areas for Americans. The US cannot afford to repeat the Israeli mistake of assuming that any Iraqi authority in hostile areas can be counted on to provide security for Americans. Walk firmly and openly away from the losers in the IGC like Chalabi. Open up the political structure and deal with Shi'ite oppositionists, Sunni insurgents, ex-Ba'athists to the maximum degree possible. Drag in as many non-IGC leaders as possible, and give Ibrahimi's council idea the strongest possible support. Lower the US profile in shaping the political future of Iraq as much as possible and bring in as broad a UN international team as possible. Focus on all of the Shi'ites, not just the friendly ones. Make this a critical aspect of US diplomatic efforts. Let the Iraqi Shi'ites deal with Sadr and stay out of internal Shi'ite disputes, except to help insure security. Quietly reach out to Iran to create whatever kind of dialogue is possible. Push Sunni Arab states into helping Iraq's Sunnis and in helping to deal with the political issues involved. Quietly make it clear that they will have to live with the aftermath of failure and that the US presence and commitment is not open-ended. Zero-base the failed contracting effort for FY2004 US aid. Put Iraqi Ministries and officials in charge of the aid process as soon as possible, with Iraqis going into the field and not foreign contractors. Accept the fact that it is far better to move more slowly and imperfectly on Iraqi terms, with some degree of Iraqi corruption, than to waste billions more on security, failed US projects, and immense overhead costs. Reprogram funds for a massive new CERP program to enable US military commanders to use dollars instead of bullets at every opportunity. Make the focus of US control over aid whether Iraqis spend the money honestly and effectively, and not on US control, plans, and objectives. Zero-base the US embassy plan to create the smallest staff practical of proven area experts. Give the clear message to the Iraqis that not only are they going to be in charge, but non-performance means no US money and no continuation of US troops and support. End the image of a US end of an occupation after the occupation. Develop a long-term economic and military aid program as leverage to try to influence Iraqi decision making over time. Have the ministries manage the process, not USAID or contractors. Focus on whether the Iraqi efforts are honest and produce real results. Do not try to use aid to force Iraq into US modes and methods. Accept the near total failure of US information operations. Stop giving all CPA/CJTF-7 press conferences, and put an Iraqi on the stage with the US spokesmen. Stop all procounsel-like press conferences where the US seems to be dictating. Make an Iraqi spokesman part of all dialogue, and give them the lead as soon as possible. Subordinate US and Coalition spokesmen as soon as possible to Iraqis in press conferences and briefings that are held in Arabic. Look at the broader failures of US policy in the region. Revitalize the Road Map and the Quartet in the light of Sharon's problems. Deal with the reality that there are two failed sets of political elites in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and that settlements should be unacceptable and not just terrorism. Abandon the Greater Middle East Initiative in its present form. Do not add another strategic and policy blunder to the present situation by appearing to call for regime change and seeking to dominate the region. Focus on a broad cooperative initiative worked out with the EU and where the EU puts pressure on the Arab League. Stop talking about region-wide democracy and liberty before there are responsible political parties and the other reforms necessary to make democracy work. Focus on a country-by-country approach to reform that considers human rights, economic welfare, and demographic issues to be at least as important as elections. Stress cooperation in "evolution;" not random efforts at "revolution." Prepare for the fact that nation building may still fail, and position the US to use the threat of withdrawal as leverage. Make it clear that the US can and will leave Iraq if the Iraqis do not reach agreement on an effective interim solution and if they do not proceed with reasonable unity to implement the UN plans.

The US position should be that the US is ready to help an Iraq that will help itself, and that it supports a true transfer of sovereignty. It should make it clear to Iraq and the world, however, that the US has a clear exit strategy. It has no interest in bases or control over Iraqi oil. It has no reason to stay if Iraq become unstable, devolves into civil war, or ends up under a strong man. The US can live with a weak or unstable Iraq, and Iraq still will have to export oil at market prices and will still be far less of a threat than Saddam's Iraq.

Anthony Cordesman

One final reality -- the image of a quick and decisive victory is almost always a false one, but it is still the image many Americans want and expect. One thousand or more dead in Iraq is hardly Vietnam, but it must be justified and explained, and explained honestly -- not in terms of the ephemeral slogans. The budget rises and supplements of the last few years are also likely to be the rule and not the exception America may well have to spend another one percent of its GNP on sustained combat and international intervention overseas than any American politician is willing to admit.

Anthony Cordesman

America faces hard political choices, and they are going to take exceptional leadership and courage in both an election year and the decades to come. They require bipartisanship of a kind that has faded since the Cold War, and neither neo-conservative nor neo-liberal ideology can help. Moreover, America's think tanks and media are going to have to move beyond sound bites and simple solutions, just as will America's politicians and military planners. Put differently, it not only is going to be a very tough year, it is going to be a very tough decade.

If you will recall in August 2002, when I spoke to you last, I indicated that I was in favor of regime change in Iraq but not under the conditions or at the time suggested for the overthrow of the Saddam Hussein government. My view about the inadvisability of the war against Iraq remains unchanged. However, now that we find the facts on the ground as they are, I am convinced that we must stay, continue to take all necessary means, and turn this very serious situation around.

My remarks this morning can be divided into three broad areas: first, a brief review of the events of the past year as a means of setting the stage for my second topic, which is what needs to be done, and finally, a discussion about the region, what is going on in the Arab and Muslim world and what are our options.

In the past year, we have seen enormous successes and abysmal failures in Iraq. The offensive campaign conducted to overthrow Saddam Hussein was a brilliant military success carried out by the finest armed forces in the world. The young men and women who captured Baghdad did a masterful job. However, even as that superbly conducted operation was unfolding, it became apparent that there were not enough troops on the ground to perform all the necessary tasks. Not only were we not capable of adequately securing supply lines, but when we reached Baghdad, there were no reserves to exploit the great success that had been achieved by the 3rd Infantry Division and the 1st Marine Division. The resulting looting, the destruction, and the failure to protect property and to secure Iraqi weapons and ammunition have had profound consequences in the past year.

This reconstruction phase that began after the seizure of Baghdad has been characterized by poor planning and frequently poor execution. Indicative of this is the amateurish way in which the CPA dealt with the Iraqi Army. First, we dismissed them. Then we hired them back and then sent them home. And now we have come full circle and are about to embark on hiring former members of the Iraqi Army to return and go to work.

The progress on the development of the country has been poor. Political issues have been handled with characteristic lack of sensitivity, and we find continued reliance on people like Mr. Chalabi who, from the start, has been untrustworthy, who has continued to demonstrate his inability to contribute to our success. Until recently, we continued to pay him and his people over $300,000 a month. Incidentally, I read on the Internet this morning that there is a new group emerging in Baghdad today which has aligned Mr. Chalabi with the Iraqi Hezbollah representative. We have come that far.

This month, unfortunately, has been capped by the tragedy of the Abu Ghraib prison. Faced with these difficulties, the questions we must deal with are how serious is this and what can be done. My answer to these questions is that it is gravely serious but not necessarily terminal. But we need a fast turnaround and we need to begin right away.

My concerns are that the policy people in both Washington and Baghdad have demonstrated their inability to do the job on a day-to-day basis this past year. It seems to me that a year is more than enough to give people an opportunity to show how well they perform. I believe we are absolutely on the brink of failure. We are looking into the abyss. We cannot start soon enough to begin the turnaround.

The first step is to designate the Department of State as the lead agency. Since the end of offensive combat, the emphasis should have shifted to political concerns in Iraq. What is required of the military is to support the political objectives. Success in a counter-insurgency operation is based on three elements: security, political activity, and development. Security and development support the overall political objective.

Finally, we need the Iraqis to be involved and to be more visible. We need to turn the transition from CPA to the new government over to the U.N. We need to take special care that those members of the interim government authority who have not played a positive role in the government thus far be excluded from serving in the interim government.

We need to give military commanders on the ground adequate troops to provide for the security throughout the country, even if it disrupts the current plans for rotation of troops in the future. Until we are able to demonstrate a credible ability to provide security to the country, it will be difficult to achieve our political objectives.

Within Iraq, the NATO governing apparatus will assure that military operations are in keeping with our overall objectives. Offensive operations should be used sparingly. Those areas that are considered too dangerous or too politically sensitive to enter can be isolated and bypassed. As in all successful counter-insurgency operations, intelligence is key. Offensive operations not based on hard intelligence will cause excessive damage and will not further our interests. The kind of human intelligence that is necessary to act promptly and decisively must come from the Iraqis themselves and can only be developed with the formation of an Iraqi intelligence service.

Today I am told that U.S. civilian government officials assigned to Iraq sometimes are there for 6 months or even, in some cases, for as little as 3-month periods. The lesson of Vietnam was that it is not practical to assign people to these kinds of duties for less than 18 months. If we are to gain some degree of continuity in the cities and towns around the country, we need to have political officers that are there for the long haul. And if they cannot be provided, from the civilian force, then they should be assigned out of the military. In this regard, we need to get contractors out of the development process and put together the rules that will allow the military to disburse money, to put people to work in the cities and in the countryside.

Last June, shortly after the military victory and the overthrow of Saddam Hussein's government, I had dinner with an old friend, Nizar Hamdoon. Members of this committee perhaps remember Nizar. He had been the Iraqi Ambassador to the United States and during the 1990-1991 war was the Iraqi Ambassador to the United Nations. Nizar was ill and was in the United States undergoing medical treatment. He passed away on the 4th of July last year. When I asked him what the American forces needed to do in order to successfully complete the transition from Saddam Hussein's regime to democracy, he said three things: provide security, services, and jobs. And if we did those three things, we would have the support of the Iraqi people.

I am convinced, more than ever, that Nizar Hamdoon was right. This is the yardstick. We need to take the time, the money, and the resources to make sure that in those three areas of endeavor, we are doing all that we need to do.

Finally, with respect to the region, you will recall when I was here last, I spoke about our failure to define the nature of this war and that terrorism was a manifestation of a far more complex and potentially dangerous dynamic. In nearly 2 years that have passed since that time, our government has done a reasonably good job against al-Qaeda. Had we not lost our focus and invaded Iraq, I suspect we would have done a better job, but as a result of the Iraq invasion, I believe the United States is even less secure than it was in August 2002. Today al-Qaeda is not only a threat, we now have home grown, independent mujahedin showing up in Iraq, in Europe, in Africa, Southeast Asia, and even North America. The threat is more diffuse and it is certainly every bit as dangerous.

As we look to the future, we are now paying the price for not focusing our attention on the 1.2 billion Muslims around the world. We are, through our actions and our lack of sensitivity, turning good, hardworking Muslims around the world against us. As a government, we continue to be insensitive to the fact that what we say in Washington and what is being done in Baghdad, Gaza, and Kabul reverberates in Sibu, in Jakarta, Casablanca, yes, and in Marseilles and in Buffalo, New York as well. We are on the verge of losing the battle of public diplomacy for the fight for the hearts and minds is now in the last phase and it is getting worse by the day.

The support of the President of the United States for the Israeli Prime Minister regarding withdrawal from Gaza, ending the right of return of Palestinians, and the status of 1967 borders without input from the Palestinian people was considered an outrage by Muslims the world over. When coupled with the disclosures of our Abu Ghraib prison, it consisted of a one-two punch that has brought us to our knees. It is not al- Jazeera or al-Arabiya's fault that we are badly portrayed in the Muslim world. It is our fault because our message has been inconsistent, legalistic, and Western in its orientation. We cannot win the war of ideas if our ideas are no good.

Finally, we are fighting a counter-insurgency as if it were being conducted in Iowa. We are advised by opportunists, frauds, and the ill-informed. Until leaders, both civilian and military, are advised by the people that know Iraq and its culture, its history and that of its neighbors, we will repeat the same mistakes that we have made in the past year and those of the British who occupied Iraq after World War I.

The eyes of the whole world have been on us for the past year and a half as we prepared for and went to war. Aside from the extraordinary success and coverage of the armed services men and women in battle, we have little we can be proud of. Is this what our Founding Fathers had in mind? Is this what the world has come to expect from the city on the hill? I hope not. I deeply believe that this country can do a better job.

You mentioned the need of the committee and the public to heed voices that understand the culture and the politics of Iraq, and we have such a witness next in the batting order. Dr. Phebe Marr, author and former senior fellow at the National Defense University, has been with us on several occasions during these hearings. We appreciate your return and we would love to hear your testimony presently, Dr. Marr.

Senator Lugar, Senator Biden, thank you very much for having me again. I hope I can offer you at least something that is new. I have to say that in most respects I agree with my colleagues on the platform.

Until April, the situation in Iraq seemed to be relatively evenly balanced between the bad news of insurgency and some good news on the political and economic front, but the events since then have delivered a crushing blow to our credibility. I believe we are in a crisis situation which needs rapid attention and strong nerves. Policymakers must put their heads together and address three broad questions.

Are these setbacks decisive, a critical turning point which has so affected American credibility in Iraq and the world, that it can no longer take the lead in rebuilding Iraq? If so, how fast should it turn over to others, in what areas, and to whom?

Of course, I cannot answer these questions definitively. I will make a few suggestions on the first two and then try to deal in a little more detail with the third, which is more in my area of expertise.

What about the point of no return? I would caution three things. Do not panic. Take the long view. We should not be misled or sidetracked by all these instant polls which show the Iraqis want us out now. All indications are that Iraqis show intense and increasing dislike of occupation. What a surprise! But they also fear a precipitous pullout of our forces. Iraqis want better management of the transition, not a "cut and run" policy. We need to remember that the Iraqi project is a long distance race, not a spectacular high jump.

Second, a piece of advice few will follow. Turn off the TV, listen to Iraqis on the ground in developing intelligence and assessments. There is nothing like hands-on, ground-level human intelligence. Iraqis may give you a different view.

When I was in the gulf in April, admittedly before the downturn in events, I was surprised in talking to Iraqis quietly in my living room. They had come back from Iraq, they had children there. They were all more optimistic about their future than I was. Now, events have subsequently taken a downturn, but we need to remember these views.

And third, something that I think will address one of Senator Biden's questions, the U.S. needs to remember that it faces a long historical and cultural pattern in Iraqi thinking. Most Iraqis are schizophrenic in their attitude to outside influences, and there is nothing new in that. They have always had a strong streak of nationalism, a desire for independence. Under Saddam they were isolated from the outside world and had little experience of cooperation with outside powers. But most Iraqis also want what America and the West have to offer: economic prosperity, openness to the outside, and a modern future. To move in this direction and rebuild their lives, they will need to cooperate with outsiders, especially the United States. And they will have to pay the price of taking more responsibility for their future and not just complaining and looking to others.

Dr Marr

The U.S. also has the problem of incompatible aims: turning an occupation into liberation. The U.S. claims it wants democracy in Iraq, but it also has some well-known interests and objectives. What if a freely elected Iraqi government does not agree? We need to think through now, publicly, what our minimal aims and interests are in Iraq. In broad terms, I would say they are three: a state free of terrorism, a state free of weapons of mass destruction, and a government, if not friendly, at least not hostile to the U.S. and Israel. And I would make it very clear we have no long-term designs on military bases or control of oil in Iraq.

This does not preclude the U.S. trying for more maximalist aims. Such as working with Iraqis on building a more stable, prosperous, democratic regime, so long as this is done with a good dose of realism. And in doing so, we must lower our expectations and our rhetoric and theirs.

Iraq is now engaged in two profound and wrenching struggles. One is an identity crisis. The key question here is whether there is an overarching Iraqi identity, and if so, what is its basis? I believe there is but it has been badly battered and needs nurturing.

The second more immediate question is a struggle for power, which is critical. This struggle encompasses ethnic and sectarian groups, but also political parties with differing outlooks and orientations and individuals with patronage networks. Right now these groups are focused on the United States and the Governing Council, but if our presence is removed, they are going to be focused on one another.

These struggles will not be resolved easily. If they take place peaceably, we will have something like democracy. If not, we will have civil conflict. Civil conflict will erode the fragile authority of the central government and the state, creating my definition of the worst case scenario, a failed state.

In my submitted statement, I have gone into some detail on ethnic and sectarian differences, political parties, and the nature of this power struggle which I cannot go into here. Suffice it to say, however, that none of these communities -- Kurds, Arab Sunnis or Shi'a -- is homogeneous. The pattern in Iraq is of a mosaic of groups, not clear-cut ethic and sectarian fragmentation.

Given these circumstances, what outcomes can we expect in Iraq over the next 5 years or so? Let me deal with the worst case scenario, the breakdown of the state to a point beyond which we could not reconstitute it. This process is underway, but it is by no means irreparable, and we want to prevent it from reaching such a point. A number of pundits and analysts have advanced the notion that Iraq might break up into three component parts: a Kurdish north, and Arab Sunni or mixed center, and a Shi'a south. They pose a potential civil war between and among these groups, Kurds versus Arabs, Shi'a versus Sunnis. Some are even asking whether the Iraqi state or Iraqi identity has already disappeared and we should be thinking about managing a separation as in the former Yugoslavia.

The answer to this question should be a resounding no. Our government is officially on record as supporting the territorial integrity of Iraq. The overwhelming majority of Iraqis do not want their state divided. Moreover, Iraq is not likely to break up into three distinct ethnic and sectarian parts with clear boundaries between them. There are too many demographic frontiers which would be very difficult to separate. Unscrambling these areas in any divide would be a nightmare.

Nor is there any evidence yet of ethnic and sectarian warfare on the ground. Kurds are not fighting Arabs. Shi'a are not fighting Sunnis. On the contrary, in the face of increasing violence and extraordinary provocation, including attempts to incite civil war, Iraq's communal leaders have shown a clear awareness of the threat, a firm commitment to avoid it, and so far considerable discipline in reining in their constituents.

The more plausible scenario we face for a failed state is the breakdown of a weak and fragile central government unable to exercise control over the country, with something of a vacuum at the center. Without a cohesive Iraqi Army or police force, local militias are taking root. This is not yet warlordism, but it could begin to resemble it. In any ensuing struggle for power, it is these groups led by extremists who may engage in fighting several different civil wars. These could destroy the potential for a buildup of the new government at the center. That is the bad scenario.

What would be a good scenario that is realistic and achievable? That is more difficult to predict. It depends on Iraqi desires and a willingness to compromise and their ability to surmount the zero sum political game. Any such scenario will take 5 to 10 years to produce. It will not be achieved on June 30 or even next year.

But one can speculate on the outlines. It would provide a mechanism -- a constitution, elections -- to create and strengthen a central government that would be representative of most, but not all Iraqis; and second, and most important in my opinion, be able to govern. This is going to involve wrenching compromises between Kurds and Arabs and among those who want more and those who want less religion in their lives.

To reach this state, we should be encouraging negotiations and alliances between and among various factions and an open political process which is already underway. Who will dominate this government and how power will be distributed is up to the Iraqis to decide, but it is not impossible that something better will eventually come out of this process. We just cannot predict exactly what it will be.

How do we make this happen? Our ability to change Iraq is limited, but we can encourage a positive outcome. I have six steps I would suggest.

I think we need to change the subject and stop talking about civil war, division of Iraq, Shi'a, Sunnis, Kurds. These identities are realities, but it would be best to downplay them. The same is true for tribalism. In the short term, to achieve security, we may need to work with these groups, but over the long term, we need to hold out a vision for a more modern Iraq which I believe has broad appeal in Iraq.

Second, I believe there is an Iraqi identity espoused by the majority -- the silent majority -- of Iraqis. We need to begin to work with groups who are committed to this identity. We should identify areas where pluralism is working and expand these zones of peace and cooperation. And there are a number of them in Iraq: Hilla, Mosul, Basra, and the north.

Third -- and this is the most important point I want to make -- the U.S. and the coalition should be focusing on economic development and the prosperity of Iraqis. To quote a phrase used in a previous campaign, "It's the economy, stupid." This includes the development of a small and medium-sized business class, jobs for the lower classes and the poor, and protection for workers. At the middle level, things have improved for educated professionals who are working and have more money. Every single Iraqi I talked to reminded me of this. The middle class is out spending this money, helping merchants at the lower level. We need to strengthen this trend. Rather than concentrating so much on elections and representation, we ought to be concentrating on delivering services because that is what Iraqis are used to, that is what they expect. It's the economy, jobs.

Fourth, our strategy should be to strengthen, support, and rebuild Iraq's middle class. While this class has been greatly weakened, it is still present in Iraq. It should be the backbone of the new Iraqi state. The middle class can be nourished by the Iraqi-American community from outside, by funds which help businessmen, and by contacts which strengthen educated professionals. The middle class in Iraq has always been the repository of modernism, secularism, and national identity. If this class is strengthened, in time it will mitigate the tendencies toward ethnic and sectarian separatism, tribalism, and Islamic fundamentalism. It is, of course, also the mainstay of democratic society.

Last, the United States should be encouraging civic and political groups in Iraq which cut across, rather than reinforce, ethnic, sectarian, and tribal lines. Iraq has a long tradition among its urban, educated community of doing this. We need to strengthen this trend. The middle class has lost its voice. We need to help them regain it.

Note

[The prepared statement of Dr. Marr follows:] Prepared Statement of Dr. Phebe Marr Up until April, the situation in Iraq seemed evenly balanced between the bad news of the insurgency and some good news on the political and economic fronts. But the events since then have delivered a crushing blow to our credibility. I believe we are a crisis situation which needs rapid attention and strong nerves. Policy makers must seriously address three broad future-oriented questions. 1. Are these set-backs decisive -- a critical turning point which has so affected US credibility in Iraq -- and the world -- that it can no longer take the lead in rebuilding Iraq? If so, how fast should it turn over to others? In what areas? And to whom? 2. As we turn over greater authority to Iraqis, what are the minimal US interests that must be satisfied? 3. What potential outcomes are likely in Iraq -- over the medium to long term? What is the worst case and how do we prevent it? What is the most realistic best case and how do we encourage it? I cannot answer these questions definitely, but will try to make a few suggestions on the first two and deal in more detail on the third question which is more in my area of expertise.

Dr Marr

? On the first question: Does the current crisis represent a point of no return? I would caution the following. Don't panic. Take the long view. We should not be misled or sidetracked by all these instant polls which show that Iraqis want us out now. All indications are that Iraqis show intense and increasing dislike of occupation -- entirely predictable -- but also fear a precipitous pull out of our forces. Iraqis want better management of the transition -- not a "cut and run" policy. The Iraq project is a long distance race; not a spectacular high jump. Turn off the TV. Listen to Iraqis on the ground in Iraq in developing intelligence and assessments. They may give you a different view. A number of private conversations I have recently had with Iraqis living in the Gulf -- admittedly in April -- greatly surprised me. They were more optimistic about Iraq's future than I was. The US should remember it faces a long historical and cultural pattern in Iraqi thinking. Many, indeed most Iraqis are almost schizophrenic in their attitude to outside influences. On the one hand, they have a strong streak of nationalism and a desire for independence. Under Saddam, most Iraqis were isolated from the outside and had little experience of cooperation with outside powers. But, most Iraqis also want what America and the West have to offer -- economic prosperity; openness to the outside and a modern future. To move in this direction, to rebuild their lives and their futures, they will need to cooperate with outsiders, especially the US. They will also have to pay the price of taking more responsibility for their future and not just complaining and looking to others. U.S. AIMS AND INTERESTS The US also has a problem of incompatible aims: turning an occupation into liberation. The US claims it wants democracy in Iraq. At the same time, the US has some well known interests and objectives it wants in the region. But what if a freely elected Iraqi government does not agree? We need to think through, publicly, what our minimal aims and interests are in Iraq. In broad terms, my list would include three: A state free of terrorism A state free of weapons of mass destruction A government, if not friendly, at least not hostile to the US and Israel

I would make clear we have no long term designs on: Military bases Control over oil This does not preclude trying for more maximalist aims, working with Iraqis on the building blocks for a stable, prosperous, democratic regime -- with a heavy dose of realism. In doing so, we need to lower our expectations -- and theirs.

Dr Marr

Iraq is now engaged in two profound and wrenching struggles. One is an identity crisis. The Ba'th defined what it meant to be an Iraqi for over three decades. That definition has been destroyed. A new one is now in gestation. The key question here is whether there is an overarching Iraqi identity, and if so, what is its basis? I believe there is, but it has been badly battered and needs to be nurtured.

Iraq is also engaged in a divisive but critical power struggle. This struggle encompasses ethnic and sectarian groups, but also political parties with differing outlooks and orientations and individuals with patronage networks. Right now these groups are focused on the US and the IGC which it has selected. But if our presence is removed, they will focus on one another.

These struggles will not be resolved easily. If they take place peaceably, we will have democracy. But if not, we will have civil conflict. These will erode the fragile authority of the central government -- and the state, creating my definition of the worst case scenario -- a failed state.

Dr Marr

In my written testimony I have looked at the three main ethnic and sectarian communities in Iraq -- Arab sunnis, Arab shi'ah and Kurds and the multiple divisions within their communities and well as political groupings within them. I can only touch on these briefly here. Suffice it to say, that none of these communities is homogeneous . . . This pattern shows a mosaic of groups, not clear cut ethnic and sectarian fragmentation.

The Arab sunnis have never identified on a sectarian basis; they are best understood as the WASPs of Iraq, a political elite. As is well known, they are the main losers in the change of regime, mainly because of the extent to which they have been Ba'thized. But the community has many differences which shape their views.

Many of the sunnis in the so-called triangle come from small towns; they have strong tribal and clan ties; are generally more traditional and conservative and many have imbibed strong Arab nationalist sentiments. These groups will be the most difficult to integrate into the new Iraq.

In recent years a new spirit of fundamentalist Islam has grown among sunnis in Iraq, coming from elements of the Muslim Brotherhood and from the Salifi movement (often called Wahhabis). This has added a fundamentalist Islamic identity to the mix.

However there is another broad category of Arab sunnis who are urban and inhabit large, mixed cities like Baghdad, Mosul and Basra. They form the backbone of Iraq's educated middle class; most are secular and many were educated abroad. Some may be nationalist in orientation but others are sitting on the fence and need to be integrated into the new order.

The main problem of the sunnis is Bathism and a pattern of political entitlement, not a sectarian identity.

Dr Marr

The Kurds will be the most difficult to reintegrate into a new Iraq for well known reasons, including self-rule for the past 13 years. But it is far from impossible. Kurds have played an important role in Iraq in the past and they can again. Indeed, they are doing so today. However the Kurds themselves are far less homogeneous than they appear. The two Kurdish parties have deep historical divisions between them. Although both are now cooperating, neither has dissolved their separate governments. There are other limits to Kurdish demands for semi- independence. Iraq's neighbors will not tolerate it and will meddle in domestic politics in the north. The Kurdish militias cannot control their borders; they will need US forces to protect them -- permanently. The PKK is nested all along the northern border with Turkey. Worse, in PUK territory the PUK lost control of its border with Iraq near Haibja which came under the control of a radical Islamic group, Ansar al- Islam, an affiliate of al-Qa'ida which is now causing us so much trouble. The Kurds cannot create a flourishing, independent economy without control over oil resources. And the Kurds have their own ethnic minorities -- Turkman, Christians -- who do not want to be absorbed into a truncated mini-state in the north. Lastly there are Kurdish tribal groups, some of whom have been working closely with us, who offer a more flexible approach to integration in the new Iraq.

The shi'ah population is not homogeneous either. At least a third is thoroughly secular, and has lost much of its sectarian identity. Many of these joined secular parties, especially the Communist and even the Ba'th Party. Another portion of the community is moderately religious. This group would follow shi'ah religious clerics on religious matters but not necessarily on politics. Only a minority of shi'ah favor more radical shi'ah leadership, like Muqtada al-Sadr, who espouses a clerically led state. Two political groups represent portions of the shi'ah community and both are currently cooperating with the US in the IGC. One is the Da'wah Party, whose representative, Ibrahim al-Ja'fari is said to be one of the most popular leaders in Iraq. The second is SCIRI, which had, and probably still has, strong influence from Iran. Both parties have disavowed the Iranian policy of clerical rule and espoused democracy, but it is not clear how firm that commitment is; both will push for more, rather than less, Islamic law in Iraq. More important than the parties is shi'ah clerical leadership, but this is far from uniform. Competition among such families, including the Sadrs, the Hakims and the Khuis, has been acute, including violence. Clerics also differ on interpretations of scripture and the role of clerics in the state. Lastly, shi'ah, especially in rural areas, have strong tribal affiliations which undercuts shi'ah identity. In any future government of Iraq in which shi'ah gain a majority, it is not clear which of the shi'ah elements will predominate. Nor is there any indication of separatism among either the shi'ah or the Arab sunnis. The shi'ah consider themselves Iraqi and Arab, as well as shi'ah and want to dominate government in all of Iraq.

Under these circumstances, what outcomes can be expected in Iraq over the next five years or so? Let me deal first with the worst-case scenario -- a break down of the Iraqi state and its national institutions to a point beyond which they could not be reconstituted. This process is underway, but it is by no means irreparable; we want to prevent it from reaching such a point. A number of pundits and analysts have recently advanced the notion that Iraqi might break-up into three component parts -- a Kurdish north, an Arab sunni or mixed center, and a shi'ah south; they pose a potential "civil war" among these groups -- Kurds vs. Arabs; shi'ah versus sunnis. Some are even asking whether the Iraqi state -- or Iraqi identity -- has already disappeared and we should be thinking about managing a separation -- as in the former Yugoslavia.

Dr Marr

The answer to this question should be a resounding "no". Our government is officially on record as supporting the territorial integrity of Iraq. The overwhelming majority of Iraqis do not want their state divided. Moreover, Iraq is not likely to "break-up" into three distinct ethnic and sectarian parts with clear boundaries between them. As indicated above, too many areas in Iraq, particularly in the geographic frontiers between these communities, are mixed; the most mixed sector of Iraq is the Baghdad province which contains a third of Iraq's population. Unscrambling these areas in any divide would be a nightmare. Nor is there yet any evidence of ethnic and sectarian warfare on the ground in Iraq. Kurds are not fighting Arabs; shi'ah are not fighting sunnis. On the contrary. In the face of increasing violence and extraordinary provocation -- including alleged attempts to incite civil war -- Iraq's communal leaders have shown clear awareness of this threat; a firm commitment to avoid it; and considerable discipline in reining in their constituents.

Dr Marr

The more plausible scenario for a "failed state" is a "break- down", with a weak and fragile central government, unable to exercise control over the country. Developing indigenous national leadership with some degree of legitimacy in the aftermath of Saddam's dictatorship has been a major problem of the transition, not likely to be easily solved. The result has been something of a vacuum at the center. Without an Iraqi Army or police force, local militias are taking root. This is not yet "warlordism" but it could begin to resemble it. In any ensuing struggle for power, it is these groups, led by extremists, who may engage in fighting several difference "civil wars" which would destroy the potential for building up a new government at the center.

What would be a good scenario that is realistic and achievable? That is more difficult to predict because it depends on Iraqi desires; their willingness to compromise, and their ability to get beyond a zero-sum game. Any such scenario will undoubtedly take 5 to 10 years to produce, but one can speculate on its outlines. It would provide the mechanism (a constitution; an election) to create and strengthen a central government that would be 1) representative of most Iraqis and 2) able to govern. This will involve wrenching compromises between Kurds and Arabs and among those who want more and those who want less religion in daily life. To reach this state, we should be encouraging negotiations and alliances between and among the various factions and groups and an open political process which is underway. Who will dominate this government and how power will be distributed is up to the Iraqis to decide. But it is not impossible that something better will, eventually come out of this process.We just cannot predict exactly what it will be.

Dr Marr

How do we make this happen? Our ability to "change" Iraq is limited But we can encourage this outcome. 1. We need to change the subject, and stop talking about civil war; division of Iraq, and shi'ah, sunnis, and Kurds. These identities are realities but it would be best to downplay them . The same is true for tribalism. For the moment, we may need to work with these groups to achieve security, but over the long term we should hold out a vision of a more modern Iraq which I believe has broad appeal in Iraq. 2. I believe there is an Iraqi identity, espoused by a silent majority of Iraqis. We can begin by working with groups who are committed to this identity and a new Iraq. We should identify areas where pluralism is working and expand these areas of peace and cooperation. 3. The US and the coalition should be focusing on economic development and prosperity among Iraqis -- including the development of a small and medium sized business class; jobs for the lower classes and the poor and protection for workers. At the middle level, things have improved for educated professionals who are working and have more money. We need to strengthen this trend. 4. Our strategy should be to support, strengthen and rebuild Iraq's middle class. While this class has been greatly weakened, it is still present in Iraq. It should be the backbone of the new Iraqi state. This middle class can be nourished by outside the Iraqi-American community from outside; by funds which help businessmen, and by contacts which strengthen educated professionals. The middle class in Iraq has always been the repository of modernism; secularism; and national identity. If this class is strengthened, in time it will mitigate tendencies toward ethnic and sectarian separatism; tribalism; and Islamic traditionalism .It is also the mainstay of democratic society. 5. The US should continue opening Iraqi society to the outside, encouraging professionals, businessmen and others to participate in the international economy and society.. 6. Lastly, the US should be encouraging civic and political groups in Iraq which cut across -- rather than reinforce -- ethnic, sectarian and tribal lines. Iraq has a long tradition, in its urban, educated community of doing this. We need to strengthen it. The middle class has lost its voice. We need to help them regain it. The Chairman. Well, thank you very much, Dr. Marr, for your paper and your presentation.

Chairman Lugar, Senator Biden, distinguished members, ladies and gentlemen, I appreciate the honor you have bestowed on me by asking me to testify before you today particularly in the presence of these three very distinguished experts who have preceded me who I think have given very powerful statements, much of which I strongly agree with.

I think it is clear that the United States now faces a perilous situation in Iraq. We have failed to come anywhere near meeting the post-war expectations of Iraqis for security and post-war reconstruction. Although we have done many good things to eliminate tyranny, to rebuild infrastructure, and to help construct a free and democratic political system, the overall ineptitude of our mission to date leaves us and Iraq in a terrible bind. If we withdraw our military forces precipitously in this security vacuum, we will leave the country at the mercy of a variety of power-hungry militias and criminal gangs, and Iraq will risk a rapid decent into one or another form of civil war. I think Dr. Marr has spoken and written very insightfully about this. If the current situation persists, we will continue fighting one form of Iraqi insurgency after another with too little legitimacy, too little will, and too few resources. There is only one word for a situation in which you cannot win and you cannot withdraw: quagmire. We are not there yet but we are close.

The only way out of this mess is a combination of robust, precise, and determined military action to defeat the most threatening anti-democratic insurgency led by Muqtada al-Sadr and his al-Mahdi army -- unfortunately, we are close to doing that -- combined with the political strategy to fill the legitimacy vacuum as rapidly as possible.

First, it has sought to improve the international legitimacy of our mission and our ability to find a transitional solution that will be credible and acceptable to most Iraqis by giving the U.N. Special Envoy, Lakhdar Brahimi, a leading role in the process. Ambassador Brahimi is an extraordinarily able, imaginative, and fair-minded mediator. I could not imagine a better candidate for this arduous task.

The second essential correct decision of the administration is to hold to the June 30 deadline for transferring power to an Iraqi Interim Government. One of the few positive things that has been suppressing Iraqi frustration and even rage over the occupation has been the prospect of a return to Iraqi sovereignty on June 30 and the promise of elections for a transitional government within 7 months after that. It is vital that we adhere to the June 30 deadline. There is no solution to the dilemma we face that does not put Iraqis forward to take political leadership responsibility for the enormous challenges of governance in that country.

We need to embrace a number of other steps that will advance three key principles: building legitimacy for the transitional program, increasing the efficacy of emergent Iraqi control, and improving the security situation in a more lasting way. I would actually say, first and foremost, "It's security, stupid," because you cannot get economic development unless you have security. All three of these goals require an intensive effort at rebuilding the now decimated, fragmented, and demoralized Iraqi state.

First, disavow any long-term military aspirations in Iraq. We should declare unambiguously that we will not seek permanent military bases in Iraq. We are not going to get a treaty from the Iraqis to approve them anyway.

Second, establish a clear date for the end to military occupation. We should set a target date for the full withdrawal of American forces. This may be 3 or 4 years in the future, but setting such a date will convince Iraqis that we are serious about leaving once the country is secure.

Third, respond to the concerns about Iraqi detainees which we have been hearing for months and months now. This is not new. We need an independent investigation of the treatment of Iraqi detainees with international participation. And we should release as many detainees as possible for whom we do not have specific evidence or a strong and credible suspicion of involvement in insurgent or criminal activity.

Fourth, reorganize and accelerate recruitment and training of the new Iraqi police and armed forces. Police training in particular has been an astonishing disaster. There is no hope of avoiding renewed oppression and/or civil war in Iraq unless we can stand up Iraqi police and armed forces that are independent of party and religious militias and answerable to the new and ultimately democratically elected Iraqi government.

Fifth, proceed vigorously with our plan for disarmament, demobilization, and reintegration of the principal militias into the police and armed forces. The most radical and anti- democratic militias, al-Sadr's Mahdi army, but others as well, have to be isolated, confronted, defeated, disarmed by force or the credible threat of force. With the militias of the Kurdish Peshmerga, SCIRI, Da'wa, and other political parties, that have indicated their willingness to play in the political game, we need to complete negotiations which have been underway for months to achieve this DDR effort. Outside of Kurdistan, which is a special case, militia fighters should be merged into the new police and armed forces as individuals, not as organized units with their command structures intact.

Seventh, make the new Iraqi Interim Government dependent on some expression of popular consent. Once the consultative assembly is chosen by a large national conference, which is to be indirectly chosen after June 30, that consultative assembly should have the ability to interpolate the Prime Minister and cabinet ministers, and even to remove them in the interim government at least through a constructive vote of no confidence.

Eighth, aim as much as possible for instruments of democratic control, even in the interim government. I could not agree more with Dr. Cordesman's judgment about the Governing Council. If its members want a place in the interim body, they can seek election to the consultative assembly.

Ninth, provide for the appointment of an Iraqi Supreme Court according to the Transitional Administrative Law as soon as there is a consultative assembly that could confirm the appointments which are initially to be generated by a higher judicial council, which is already in place. This is a vital step that we need to take in order to begin to generate a rule of law.

Tenth, codify the domestic and international arrangements for Iraq in a new U.N. Security Council resolution, which should recognize the Iraqi Interim Government and whatever temporary status of forces agreement is reached between the U.S. and that interim government, hopefully with U.N. mediation or participation. I think if we do this, we can get the kind of international participation, including NATO participation, that my colleagues have spoken of.

Eleventh, we should do something in this period to acknowledge the grievances over the Transitional Administrative Law. I helped to advise on it. It is an extraordinarily impressive, deeply liberal document, but there are serious grievances over some of the compromises that were reached. We should emphatically acknowledge at a minimum that this is only a temporary document and that Iraqis will be fully free and sovereign to write a new permanent constitution. Even more negotiations may be necessary over the annex.

Twelfth, we should invest in supporting moderate secular Shi'a who draw support from parties, movements, and associations that do not have muscular militias. Hopefully, a fair process of selection of national conference participants will put many of these new faces forward.

Finally, we urgently need to level the political playing field with respect to political party funding. More independent and democratic political parties, again that do not have militias, that are not getting massive funding from Iran and Saudi Arabia, are begging us for support. As soon as an Iraqi independent electoral administration is established, we should help it create a transparent fund for the support in equal amounts of all political parties that pass a certain threshold of demonstrated popular support.

In conclusion, for a long time now, it has been clear that the three great challenges of restoring security, reconstructing the economy, and rebuilding the system of government are intricately intertwined. We cannot revive the economy, generate jobs and electricity, and get a new Iraqi government up and functioning unless we dramatically improve security. But we cannot improve security unless we have a more credible and legitimate framework for Iraqi governance. The U.N. mission, working with the CPA, holds out some promise of progress in the latter regard. But we have a lot of hard work to do on the security front as well, and we are not going to get there unless we put some of the worst thugs and spoilers out of business, beginning with the Mahdi army. On both the security and political fronts, the choices we make and the actions we take between now and June 30 will have diffuse and lasting consequences for the future political order in Iraq.

As you all well understand, the United States now faces a perilous situation in Iraq today. Because of a long catalogue of strategic and tactical blunders, we have failed to come anywhere near meeting the post-war expectations of Iraqis for security and post-conflict reconstruction. Although we have done many good things to eliminate tyranny, to rebuild infrastructure, and to help construct a free society and democratic political system, the overall ineptitude of our mission to date leaves us -- and Iraq -- in a terrible bind. If we withdraw our military forces precipitously in this security vacuum, we will leave the country at the mercy of a variety of power-hungry militias and criminal gangs, and Iraq will risk a rapid descent into one or another form of civil war. If the current situation persists, we will continue fighting one form of Iraqi insurgency after another with too little legitimacy, too little will, and too few resources. There is only one word for a situation in which you cannot win and you cannot withdraw: quagmire. We are not there yet, but we are close.

The scope for a good outcome has been greatly reduced as a result of the two insurgencies that we now confront in Iraq. One of these, in the Sunni heartland, has been festering since the end of the war, but has picked up deadly momentum in recent months and then took on a new ferocity with the grisly murder of the four American contractors in Fallujah on March 31. The other, in the Shiite heartland, broke out shortly thereafter when the radical young Shiite cleric, Muqtada al- Sadr, launched a violent uprising after the Americans badly bungled the long-delayed imperative of confronting his violent network. Add to this the awful news of grotesque humiliation of Iraqi prisoners by our own forces, and you have a profoundly deteriorating and potentially disastrous situation for the United States.

I will not dwell long on how we got to this perilous point, but a few observations are necessary. In any situation of occupation or imperial dominion, there is always a tension between control and legitimacy. The less control you have or can impose as an occupying power, the more you need legitimacy and voluntary cooperation. In many parts of its colonial empire, Britain addressed this challenge through the system of "indirect rule," which used local rulers to maintain control and gradually devolved more power through elections and local self-rule. As a result of this, Britain needed less troops relative to population than other colonial powers. United Nations peace implementation missions have addressed this problem in part through the mobilization of international legitimacy, via UN Security Council resolutions, and in part by developing explicit and transparent timetables for the transfer of power back to the people through elections. But even in these UN or other international trustee missions, success has depended in part on the presence of a sufficiently large and robust international force to keep (and in some instances impose) peace.

In Iraq, we have had too little legitimacy, but also in some ways to little control as well. We insisted on maintaining full political control from the start, but we did not have sufficient control on the ground, through adequate military force, to make our political and administrative control effective. Thus we could not meet popular expectations for the restoration of security and basic services like water and electricity (though progress we did make on all of those fronts). Because we did not deliver rapidly enough (and it could never truly have been rapidly enough to meet the inflated public expectations), because it was always an American administrator out in front decreeing and explaining, and because the Iraqi people did not see new Iraqi political leaders exercising much effective responsibility, the American-led occupation quickly developed a serious and growing legitimacy deficit.

Many things could have relieved this deficit. For example, if we had pushed more reconstruction funding out to local military commanders, through the rather effective CERP (Commanders' Emergency Reconstruction Program) channel, and if we had given some real authority and funding to the local and provincial councils we were establishing around the country, Iraqis might have seen more progress and found emerging new forms of Iraqi authority with which they could identify. We might have also made more progress by organizing actual elections, however imperfect, at the local level where the people were ready for it and the ration-card system provided a crude system for identifying voters. In the few places where this mechanism was employed, it worked acceptably well -- before CPA ordered that no more direct elections be held (for fear of giving the impression that it would be possible to hold national elections soon -- which it would not have been). Even so, the local governance teams did a pretty good job in many cases of finding ways to choose, and then later "refresh", the provincial and local councils. Sadly, the CERP funding was terminated prematurely, and the Local Government Order, defining the powers of provincial and local governments, sat around at CPA for months in various states of development and imminent release, while the local councils dawdled and dithered without much of anything to do, and ominously in some cases, without getting paid for months at a time. Within the CPA itself, I think historians will find that there was an obsession with centralized control, at the cost of the flexibility and devolution that might have gotten things done more quickly and built up more legitimacy.

So we had serious problems of security, reconstruction delivery, and legitimacy. We failed to ameliorate these by putting enough resources in (particularly enough troops) and by giving Iraqis early on more control over their own affairs. Now we are transferring control soon to Iraqis, and that is truly the, only hope for rescuing a rapidly deteriorating situation. But in transitional politics, as in all other politics, timing is crucial, and what could be achieved by a certain initiative at one moment in time may no longer be possible months or years later, when the parameters have shifted and the scope for building a moderate center may have been lost.

One June 30, governing authority will be transferred to an Iraqi Interim Government, terminating the occupation authority, the CPA (or Coalition Provisional Authority). Despite all the violence and turmoil -- which the Baathist spoilers, external jihadists, and Islamist extremists have always intended to escalate in the run-up to the transition -- that transfer is going to happen on schedule. A United Nations team, led by special envoy Lakhdar Brahimi, is in Iraq now for a third visit, completing work to select the members of the Iraqi Interim Government. As the interim constitution (called the Transitional Administrative Law) provides for, the government will be led by a prime minister and cabinet, with some oversight and symbolic authority being exercised by a presidency council of a president and two vice-presidents. But there will be no law-making parliament until elections are held, by the end of next January, for a transitional government. Rather, Mr. Brahimi plans to return again to help mediate the selection after June 30, through indirect means, of a widely representative national conference of some 1000 to 1500 delegates, which will discuss national problems and select a smaller consultative assembly to advise the cabinet.

This plan is not without some serious problems. It is easy for Iraqis to agree in principle on elections to choose a transitional government, even if many parties plan to try to rig or mutilate those elections in practice. But having the United Nations select the interim government, even a so-called "technocratic" government of non- partisan officials, risks a whole new set of legitimacy problems. Everyone who loses out in the bid for interim power will complain bitterly that the selections were illegitimate. The problem is that the method that some of us within CPA preferred -- having Iraqis select the national conference delegates before June 30, and having that body then choose an assembly which would choose the prime minister and presidency council -- is just not feasible given the pressure of time and the deterioration in the security situation since the end of March. Thus, many key members of the twenty-five-member Iraqi Governing Council (IGC), which has exercised some advisory authority alongside the CPA Administrator, Ambassador L. Paul Bremer III, since last July, are denouncing the plan and calling for the IGC to continue, perhaps in expanded form, as a kind of senate or consultative body with some authority. Some of the political parties on the IGC that are pushing this line are powerful players because, independent of whatever popular support they command, they have large, armed militias whose cooperation, or at least forbearance, the Coalition needs now more than ever if it is to survive this treacherous period.

The next step in the timetable will be the organization of elections by January 31 of 2005. To do this, Iraq will need an independent electoral commission, a law to define and structure that body's authority, and a law to define the electoral system for choosing members of parliament. A separate UN team, led by the head of the UN electoral assistance division, Carina Perelli, has been in Iraq working on all these issues. Its work has been slowed by the upsurge in violence, and by the group's decision to invite any and all Iraqis to apply in writing for one of the seven Iraqi slots on the commission. In the current chaos, it is going to be a real challenge to appoint and train an electoral commission with sufficient credibility, independence, and competence to organize decent elections by the January deadline. Fortunately, they will have considerable assistance from the UN. But if the violence is not brought under control, they will not even be able to move around the country to set up local and regional offices, much less prepare for the crucial tasks of registering voters and parties. Even if the violence subsides to a degree that permits the administrative work to proceed, the Electoral Commission will need to tackle the question of how to level the political playing field, which will otherwise be dominated by political parties that are already ruling (in Kurdistan) or that have been receiving huge amounts of money and other assistance from Iran.

The Interim Government's structure, powers, and functions are to be spelled out in an Annex to the Transitional Law. This Annex will be written through negotiations this month. During my final weeks in Iraq, I encountered in speeches and meetings around the country some vigorous and frequent objections to specific provisions of the Law, particularly article 61 C, which gives any three provinces (and there are three predominantly Kurdish provinces) the ability to veto the final constitution in the referendum. Many Arab Iraqis are in fact quite upset about this and other provisions, which they feel give too much veto power to the Kurds. These Iraqis object as well to other features of the Law, and to the lack of public discussion over its final provisions before it was adopted (unanimously) by the Governing Council. If we did not have the crisis of mounting violence in the country, and now the new crisis over the treatment of Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib, we would probably be dealing with a crisis over the Transitional Law. Ayatollah Ali Al-Sistani, the most important Shiite religious and moral leader in the country, and some of his key followers have been quite outspoken in rejecting the Law and demanding changes. Indeed, Muqtada Sadr's remarkable success in mobilizing many thousands of supporters in March-April-May is the direct result of the crisis between the CPA and the Governing Council on the one hand and Sistani (and the Hawzah, or senior Shiite clergy) on the other. At long last the isolated Muqtada could claim, as he indeed did, that he was "Sistani's Striking Arm." This way one crisis led directly to the other.

Here is another manifestation, in sharp relief, of the legitimacy problem. The negotiations over the Annex provide a new opportunity to address this problem, and given the high threshold for amending the Law once it comes into effect, perhaps the last realistic opportunity in the transitional period. We should seize this opportunity as part of a broader strategy of building up the more moderate Shiite political and religious establishment as a counterweight to Muqtada al-Sadr.

All counter-insurgency efforts ultimately depend on winning the larger political and symbolic struggle for "hearts and minds." Though he has gained in popular support in recent weeks, Muqtada Sadr -- a fascist thug with only the thinnest Islamist religious credentials, who is reviled by much of the Shiite population and religious establishment -- cannot win the broad bulk of Iraqi "hearts and minds," even in the Shiite south. Neither can the diehard Baathist remnants of Saddam's regime, who, in connivance with external jihadists such as Al- Qaeda, have been driving the insurgency in the Sunni center of the country. Indeed, one of the fascinating, potentially destructive, but also potentially positive elements in the fluid political situation we confront is that there is no coherent political and military force in Iraq that is capable of rallying, and for any meaningful period of time, sustaining, broad popular support.

No single force can win in Iraq, but the United States could lose, and very soon. Even before the outbreak of the scandal over US forces' degrading, disgraceful abuse of Iraqi prisoners at the Abu Ghraib prison, Iraqi patience with the American occupation was dwindling rapidly. More and more Iraqis have been coming around to the view that if we cannot give them security, jobs, and electricity, why should they continue to suffer the general humiliation and countless specific indignities of American forces occupying their land?

What seemed possible six weeks ago, and certainly three months ago, is not necessarily feasible today. Clearly, the option of sending in significantly more troops to combat the insurgency and defeat the diehard and spoiler elements is dead. It is now clear that the Bush Administration -- which has never been honest with itself or the American people about what would be needed to succeed in Iraq -- is not going to up the ante for the United States in that kind of way in an election year. Moreover, even introducing two more divisions -- which would still leave our overall troop strength far below the 250,000 or so that many military experts believed was the minimum necessary to bring and maintain order in post-war Iraq -- would so strain the capacity of our armed forces that it would require drastic measures.

So we are stuck in Iraq for the moment with too few troops to defeat the insurgency and way too many for a growing segment of deeply disaffected Iraqi public opinion. Thus we have basically opted to live with the city of Fallujah under the control of insurgents, hoping the Iraqi force we have quickly stood up there will at least contain and dampen down the problem. And we are slowly trying to take back some of the facilities and installations that Muqtada Sadr's al-Mahdi Army has seized in the past few weeks and months, while so far avoiding a decisive confrontation with Muqtada himself (so as not to inflict civilian casualties or damage the religious shrines). If there is any chance of decent governance emerging in Iraq in the near to medium term, I believe we are going to have to defeat the insurgency of the Mahdi army. But we can only do so if we work with Iraqi Shiites of at least somewhat more moderate and pragmatic political orientations, and most of all with Ayatollah Sistani. No Iraqi commands a wider following of respect and consideration, and has more capacity to steer political developments away from violence and extremism, than Sistani, who insists on free elections as the basis of political legitimacy.

In fact, there are many Iraqi forces with whom we can work. But the tragedy is that the most democratic among them do not have sizable armed militias at their command, and for the most part, have not had the money, time, training, and skill to build up broad bases of support. At least four political parties represented on the Governing Council do have some basis of support in the country. The problem is that two of these are the ruling parties of the semiautonomous Kurdistan region, the PUK (Patriotic Union of Kurdistan) and the KDP (the Democratic Party of Kurdistan), and their influence largely ends at the borders of that region, while the other two forces, SCIRI and Da'wa, are backed in various ways by the Iranian regime and, despite the moderation they have evinced in Baghdad, appear to favor one or another form of Islamic fundamentalist regime. Each of these four parties has its own militia with probably at least 10,000 fighters, and in the case of the two Kurdish Peshmerga forces, maybe each several times that number.

If Iraq has elections with these forces, and many other private armed forces, controlling various strongholds, and without a superior neutral force on the ground to rein them in, the elections are not going to be free and fair. There will be a war for dominance along the margins of different strongholds, opposing candidates will be assassinated, electoral officials will be intimidated, ballot boxes will be stolen -- it will be a nasty business. Beyond this, there is the danger that if the militias are not demobilized before the Americans withdraw, other political forces would arm in self-defense, or more precisely -- if you consider that in many parts of rural Iraq, every male over 14 already has a Kalishnikov (or at least older) rifle -- they will acquire heavy weapons, in preparation for the coming war for Iraq. Then you would have a truly awful mess, in which different parties, tribes, and alliances would have their own armies contesting violently for local, regional, and perhaps ultimately national dominance, with every neighboring country in the region intervening on behalf of its favored group or groups. This would be what Thomas Friedman calls "Lebanon on steroids" -- a hellish (and possibly like Lebanon, protracted) civil war in which no central government could exert coherent authority.

Such a scenario could spawn disastrous humanitarian and political consequences. There would be thousands, possibly tens or even hundreds of thousands, of Iraqi casualties. In the chaos, terrorism and organized crime would thrive. Anti-Americanism, which is already gaining momentum in Iraq, would take on an entirely new breadth and intensity. We would be blamed for this, even if the instigators were more properly located in Syria, Saudi Arabia, and most of all Iran.

The only alternative to civil war or another truly brutal and total dictatorship is a political system based on some kind of constitutional, consensual power-sharing bargain. Any plan to break up the country, explicitly or implicitly, into its constituent ethnic or religious pieces will inevitably bring massive bloodshed, much of it regionally driven. And any effort to simply hand power over to a reconstructed Baathist dictatorship would be violently, and I am sure successfully, resisted by both the Kurds and the Shia. Any scenario that is even vaguely positive -- that avoids the disaster of total war or total dictatorship -- must involve key elements of democracy: negotiations, mutual concessions and compromise, delineation of individual and group rights, sharing and limiting of power, and elections in which different political parties and independents contest to determine who will exercise power.

However, elements of democracy do not necessarily add up to democracy, and the situation has deteriorated to the point that we need a strong dose of realism about what is possible. The two best-organized parties in the Shiite South, SCIRI and Da'wa, are not democratic political parties. That is why they have heavily armed militias that are already flexing their muscles. That is why they are being backed by hardline conservative elements in the Iranian regimes. And doubts are even raised about whether the two Kurdish parties, who fought a war for political control in Kurdistan during the 1990s, will tolerate electoral competitors. In the last few months, their militia forces have been involved in acts of ethnic cleansing to push out from Kirkuk Arabs who were settled there by Saddam Hussein in his campaign of "Arabization." This violent preemption of the intended process of peaceful, judicial dispute resolution is hardly a reassuring sign.

Much of the country's politics remains, literally, tribal. Particularly in the rural areas, loyalties are mobilized and delivered by tribal sheikhs, and alliances are built on these foundations. So can blood debts be incurred and avenged deep into the future as a result of violence against a member of the tribe. Inevitably in emergent democratic politics, important political formations will be constituted from among Iraq's many tribes. In fact, one of the potentially more moderate and democratic political party formations -- the Iraqi Democratic Gathering, based largely in the Shiite south -- has its base among a vast network of tribes that do not want to see Iraq or any part of it dominated by Iran or forces loyal to the Iranian regime. If other parties play by the rules of the democratic game, so will this one. If elections are to be fought by more violent methods, I do not expect that these tribes, which are already heavily armed, will sit on their hands and wait to be bullied and shot.

The establishment of the Fallujah Brigade as a solution to the insurgency there was probably the least bad option, but it comes at a price. In effect, we created (or fully legitimized) a new sectarian militia, small for now, but probably the best trained of them all. Similarly, by encouraging SCIRI's militia, the Badr Brigade, and the Da'wa militia to attack Muqtada's Mahdi Army in Najaf and Karbala (again, probably a necessarily evil), we will also pay a heavy price. To the extent they do our bidding, we will owe them something.

I am suggesting, then, two points. First, the chance for any kind of decent, peaceful, constitutional order heavily depends on what happens to the militias. Unless they are to some considerable extent demobilized and replaced by the armed forces of a new and legitimate Iraqi state, the near-term political future will be very rough. But the militias that would need to be demobilized for this to happen have in fact been strengthened enormously in their bargaining leverage vis-a- vis the United States as a result of the disintegration of recent weeks. Now, we need them, and their cooperation and assistance, more than ever. So we are in less of a position to ask of them painful concessions -- not to mention compelling those concessions by force.

Since the beginning of the year, we have been negotiating with the principal militias a comprehensive DDR plan for "disarmament, demobilization and reintegration" of their fighters into the new Iraqi police and armed forces and the civilian economy. To succeed, any DDR plan has to rely heavily on positive incentives (jobs, pensions, status in the new armed forces) for those militias that agree to cooperate, and force to demobilize those militias that will never cooperate. The Mahdi Army clearly falls into the latter category, which is why it is so important that it be defeated now. But it was always questionable whether the other four largest militias would really fully demobilize and disarm, rather than warehouse their heavy weapons while taking up positions, temporarily, in the new armed forces. With the country in the state it is and our leverage so much reduced, demobilization -- if it happens at all -- is likely to be much more superficial, and even to concede to the integration of whole militia units into the police and armed forces, with their command structures more or less intact. In that case, the new and truly independent Iraqi state that is so desperately needed will not emerge. Rather, it will parceled out among and become a captive of these preexisting armed groups. Probably the big winner then, at least initially, will be Iran, which has seeded the whole Shiite south with arms, weapons, propaganda, and thousands (by one estimate, 14,000) intelligence agents.

I am not sure, at this point, that there is any way to prevent a scenario something like this. To do so would require a sizable and credible international -- which is to say, largely American -- force on the ground in Iraq for some time to come. And the way things are going, we are likely to find ourselves in something of a race to see who demands the withdrawal of American forces first, the Iraqi public or the American public. Even if American troops are able to stay in large numbers for another year or two to help provide security, I doubt they are going to be given the authority, or that they would be able to muster the legitimacy within Iraq, to really confront these other militias -- even assuming that the Sadr insurgency is somehow defeated, and that the Fallujah insurgency is at least contained.

We are in an utterly Hobbesian situation, as we always are in such post-conflict settings, in which the balance of force will shape all the other political parameters. If we do not succeed in standing up Iraqi police and military forces that are loyal to the state of Iraq, and not to this or that party, militia, or warlord, there will be no hope for even a semi-democratic political system. But creating any kind of coherent Iraqi armed forces will take years (by some estimates, two to five years), and the prospect is rising that an Iraqi government will demand (possibly under popular pressure) that American forces be withdrawn well before that. Then (absent a new international force that is nowhere on the horizon), the only force that Iraq could fall back on to maintain order would be the major party militias, and the only question would be whether they could work out among themselves some modus vivendi that gives each a relative monopoly of power within some region or locality, while sharing power at the center. That would be better than all-out civil war, but lacking any roots or constraints in a rule of law, it would be highly susceptible to descent into civil war if the elite bargains were to shatter. And it would still be very bad for most of the Iraqi democrats we have sought to help in politics and civil society -- decent people, with ideas and ideals, who placed their faith in our own professed commitment to stay the course to help build a democracy in Iraq.

One silver lining is that the overall national situation is highly unlikely to revert to the kind of coherent, total dictatorship that the country has suffered under the Baathists in particular. There will be a profusion of power centers. Even if these are not democratic in themselves, the interaction among them will provide some pluralism, some space for democratic discourse and action -- if the country does not drown in bloodshed, and if some kind of self-sustaining constitutional bargain can be struck among them. That is risky, but not impossible. what is to be done?

The only way out of this mess is a combination of robust, precise, and determined military action to defeat the most threatening, anti- democratic insurgency -- led by Muqtada Sadr and his Mahdi Army -- combined with a political strategy to fill the legitimacy vacuum as rapidly as possible.

The Bush Administration has taken two vital steps in the latter regard. First, it has sought to improve the international legitimacy of our mission, and our ability to find a transitional solution that will be credible and acceptable to the largest possible number of Iraqis -- by giving the United Nations and its special envoy, Lakhdar Brahimi, a leading role in the process. Ambassador Brahimi is an extraordinarily able, imaginative, and fair-minded mediator; I could not imagine a better candidate for this arduous task. One reason why he is the right person for the job is that he has a habit of doing something elementary that our own CPA has not done often and well enough: listening to Iraqis themselves, and as wide a range of Iraqi opinion as possible.

The second essential, correct decision of the Administration is to hold to the June 30 deadline for transferring power to an Iraqi interim government. One of the few positive things that has been suppressing Iraqi frustration and even rage over the occupation has been the prospect of a return to Iraqi sovereignty on June 30, and the promise of elections for a transitional government within seven months after that. It is vital that we adhere to the June 30 deadline. There is no solution to the dilemma we are in that does not put Iraqis forward to take political leadership responsibility for the enormous challenges of governance the country confronts. They cannot do it alone, but they must take the lead, and Iraqis must see that Iraqis are taking the lead. We should stop talking about "limited sovereignty." Iraqis have suffered enough humiliation. They need the dignity of knowing that they will be able to assert control over their own future after June 30, even if this will obviously be limited on the security side by the presence of some 150,000 international troops.
