This hearing of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is called to order. The Committee on Foreign Relations meets for our first hearing on Iraq in the 109th Congress. In the last Congress we held 23 hearings on Iraq, a level of scrutiny demanded by the critical impact that the progress in Iraq has on United States national security.

The remarkable elections held in Iraq over the weekend demonstrated the courage and the commitment of the Iraqi people. Despite threats and acts of violence, reports indicate that millions of Iraqis voted. The results will not be certified until February 15, but there is little doubt that the election provides a basis for moving forward with Iraqi self- government.

Most importantly, the election can strengthen the legitimacy of Iraqi officials. The impact of having properly elected leaders in Iraq for the first time could be substantial. Insurgents may find it tougher to sell their propaganda that the government has no legitimacy and the United States is merely an occupying power. In addition, parties and groups in Iraq that participate in the government will have a growing stake in its success.

The election, however, does not guarantee that the path to democracy will be an easy one. The security situation in the Sunni areas of Iraq will remain extremely tense. Protecting the newly elected 275-member Transitional National Assembly must be a security priority. Methods also must be found to include Sunnis in the government without being unfair to the winners of the election.

The Iraq election will be viewed by some as the first step in the United States exit strategy, but we should recognize how much work is left to be done. The coalition must assign priority to training Iraqi security forces. Ultimately, our success at training Iraqis over time will determine how long United States forces will need to be in Iraq. We must be prepared to provide stability while Iraqi troops and police develop their capabilities, particularly during this time of Constitution-building.

We must also be prepared for the Iraqi Government and the Iraqi Constitution to develop in directions that are sometimes not in perfect harmony with our expectations. The election moves the Iraqis a step closer to achieving democracy, but that also means that they will be making more decisions about their future. We anticipate and hope that the new government will work closely with the United States and embrace democratic, pluralistic principles. Inevitably, however, it will make some decisions that we do not like.

Our Embassy in Iraq must work closely with the Iraqi Government to establish a positive counseling relationship. We also must undertake a diplomatic offensive in the Middle East, Europe, and elsewhere to encourage constructive relationships between the Iraqi Government and other nations.

The President is reportedly seeking an additional $80 billion for support of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Congress should be prepared to take up this proposal when it arrives and debate it soberly. We do not expect the request to include more infrastructure reconstruction funds, but we do expect it will include money to build and to operate the Embassy in Baghdad and to meet the urgent needs of training and equipping Iraqi security forces. Passage of such a bill would be a strong signal to the world and to Iraq about United States staying power.

Thank you very much, Senator, and let me thank the committee for the opportunity to testify. I think it is clear that our strategy toward Iraq is today our most important foreign policy issue and I hope the committee will forgive me if I take just a few extra minutes to outline some of the views in "Playing the Course," which I do request be included in the record.

Anthony Cordesman
In that paper, I pointed out that the odds of success in Iraq are roughly even if we pursue the right policies and that the definition of success is going to be a pluralistic Iraqi Government that can work its way through years of difficulty without direct American support and continuing large American military presence. But I also pointed out that, while the United States must be prepared for failure in Iraq, exiting is a tactic and it is not a strategy. It can eliminate the costs of the war, it can eliminate casualties, but it will inevitably create at least as many problems as it solves, unless we exit under conditions that do define success. If we leave a legacy of political failure, chaos, or civil conflict in Iraq, that is not a strategy.

Regardless of what we do, we will need to reassess and rebuild our entire position in the Middle East and Southwest Asia, restructure our security policy and regional posture in the area, deal with problems like energy and the problems of a nuclear Iran.

Let me also say that, while cut-and-run may ultimately be a necessity, it too is not a strategy. It is a massive defeat. That is why I am going to argue that we really do need to do our best to salvage the situation in Iraq. We should not stay at any cost. We should not abandon Iraq as long as there is any hope of success.

I think, though, to understand what we can and cannot do in Iraq we have to begin by admitting that we have to build on the climate left by past mistakes, and I see nine major mistakes that we now have to deal with. One is going to war on the basis of the wrong intelligence and on the basis of a rationale we have not been able to defend to the world or to the Iraqis.

The second is to bypass the inter-agency process during the planning and preparation for the war, which has left a legacy of difficulty in terms of intelligence, the role of State Department, and civil-military relations.

The third is that we fought the war without any meaningful plan for stability operations and nation-building and we allowed political and economic chaos to take place as we advanced and in the immediate aftermath of Saddam's fall.

Fourth, we did not prepare our military forces for civil- military missions, to develop human intelligence capabilities and deal with terrorism and insurgency, to play the role of occupier in a nation with an alien religion, language, and culture. As a result, we have forced our military to adapt under pressure and in the face of a growing enemy.

For a year we assumed that a proconsul in the form of CPA could govern Iraq and plan its future rather than Iraqis, and we staffed much of the CPA with inexperienced ideologues, many of which spent virtually all of their time in a secure enclave and on 3- to 6-month tours. For a year we developed idealized plans for political reform that did not survive engagement with reality, and we focused far too much on national elections and drafting a constitution and not on effective governance. For a year we had military leadership that would not work closely with the leadership of the CPA, and we lived in a state of denial about the level of popular hostility we faced and a growing insurgency. For a year we made no effort to create effective military, security, and police forces that could stand on their own in dealing with the growing insurgency, terrorism, and lawlessness. Instead, we saw such forces largely as a potential threat to our idealized democracy and felt our forces could easily defeat an insurgency of some 5 to 6,000 former regime loyalists.

Finally, for a year we tried to deal with an Iraqi economy that was a command kleptocracy as if it could quickly and easily be converted to a modern market-driven economy. Again, we sent in far too many advisers with no real area expertise and with far too little continuity. We created a long-term aid plan without a meaningful understanding or survey of the economic problems Iraq faced, without an understanding of Iraq's immediate needs and expectations, and without the talent in either the United States Government or the contract community to implement such a plan or to develop the kinds of plans and programs that should have been focused on the short- and medium-term requirement that Iraq actually needed.

Many of the problems we face could have been avoided and I think it is to the credit of the people in Iraq today that the past does not have to be the prologue to the future. We have moved Iraq policy beyond the policy cluster in the Pentagon, we have weakened the hold of neoconservatives and we have begun to implement a serious inter-agency approach. We now have an ambassador and a general that can work together and function as a civil-military team. We have given sovereignty to the Iraqis and let them take over the political process. We have begun to accept the true complexity of the political problems in Iraq and the level of popular hostility and tension we face.

We have reorganized the U.S. and coalition military posture to fight a serious counterinsurgency and counterterrorist war. In fact, we have begun to rethink our entire process of force transformation to focus on these threats. We have begun to train Iraqi military, security, and police forces for the threat they actually face and not for a secure, stable, and democratic world.

We have, at least partially, understood that our initial aid plans were unrealistic and that priority has to be given to short- and medium-term stability and to using dollars as a substitute for bullets. We have also begun to understand that USAID in Washington is incompetent in dealing with the challenge it faces, that outside contractors cannot manage an effective aid program in Iraq, and that dollars need to go to Iraqis and not outsiders.

We need to give the Americans now serving in Iraq, and especially the civilians and military in the field, credit for these changes. But more does need to be done. When we talk about this, one problem we face is the lack of meaningful reporting coming out of the U.S. Government on the nature of what is happening in the military program, in the insurgency, and in the economic aid program.

I do believe, however, that there are clearly five steps we do need to take and that these steps could increase our chances of success well beyond 50-50 during the coming year. First, we need to do everything we can to demonstrate the independence of the emerging Iraqi political structure, while encouraging inclusiveness and some form of federalism and while moving beyond a focus on elections and the constitution and providing the full range of support for governance that is needed in the field and outside the Green Zone.

We cannot measure legitimacy in terms of elections. Iraqis do not. They measure it in terms of the ability to govern, to give all Iraqis a fair share of wealth and power, to provide personal security, employment, and economic opportunity in terms of education and health service and basic utilities. They also measure it in terms of the ability of their government to disagree with the United States and the coalition, to act independently, and to take over the kind of roles that an independent government must perform. They look for our cooperation in terms of international institutions as well as within the process of the coalition.

Our fascination with elections needs to be matched with a focus on aiding governance, while we steadily phase down high- level intervention and pressure on the Iraqi Government. Every other thing we do will fail if the Iraqis cannot stand alone and visibly do so. We cannot save a government from itself and we will destroy it if we try to do so.

Second, we need a clear plan to create the kind of independent Iraqi military, security, and police forces that can replace United States and coalition forces except when they are needed in an advisory role. We do not have 127,000 useful or meaningful men in today's forces. We have somewhere around 7 to 11,000 that are beginning to have the necessary training and some of the equipment to deal with an active counterinsurgency campaign and the threat they face. We have something like two to three battalions today that can actually stand alone in the face of a serious insurgent attack. The first battalion with the kind of armor necessary to survive serious attack went into service on the 15th of January and its first actual appearance was during the course of the elections.

The key point in this analysis, however, is simple: Once again, we will fail in Iraq unless we develop a convincing plan to create Iraqi forces with the leadership, experience, equipment, and facilities they need to secure their country without us and actually implement it. This is the sine qua non for American action and there is no more devastating critique of the ongoing failures in United States policy than the lack of such a plan in a public forum if one exists at all; a plan that will show the Iraqi people, the region, the Congress, and the American people that we can actually achieve a meaningful form of victory in Iraq.

Let me say here too that equipment and facilities are not a casual issue and they are a major problem in all of the public reporting on our progress to date. We do not see any indication that Iraqis are being given any of the equipment we see as vital to actually conduct operations in high threat areas. In fact, as an American I often find it contemptible that we so often criticize Iraqi forces for their behavior when they send them out to isolated facilities that cannot be protected or in vehicles without armor or protection when we talk about up- armoring HMMV's or replacing them with M-113's.

I find it equally strange that we do not report on Iraqi casualties and that we do not treat their losses as being important in the way we treat ours. If I may ask an obvious question, would any Senator or Congressman send their son or daughter out with the vehicles, with the combat equipment, and into the facilities where we send Iraqis? Would they expect them to stay, to defend and operate under these conditions?

Third, we need to complete the reorganization of our aid effort, to focus on bringing short- and near-term stability in dealing with the counterinsurgency campaign. Let me make it clear, I have nothing but respect for the USAID and contract personnel in the field, who have actually implemented useful projects and often done so at the risk of their lives. I also appreciate that the almost mindless focus on long-term aid efforts that shaped our initial aid request has been replaced with substantial reprogramming. However, anyone who looks at the USAID web page sees nothing but a long list of plans and project efforts that are not tied to any meaningful measures of effectiveness or to any defendable requirements.

USAID seems to live in a Panglossian fantasy world where no problems and challenges really exist and no public strategy plans and metrics of success are needed. We need economic stability for a nation of nearly 26 million people with an infrastructure better suited to 16 to 18 million. We need jobs for a 7.8-million-person workforce that now has at least 30 to 40 percent unemployment. What we have is an aid program based on American decisions about what is necessary, run largely by foreign contractors, with far too much money going to non- Iraqis, much of it to protect projects that end up being sabotaged or dysfunctional.

The good news is we have only disbursed about $2.5 billion out of the $18.4 billion in fiscal 2004 aid. The bad news is that money desperately needed to be spent. What we have seen is an aid program that hires all of 121,000 Iraqis out of a labor force of 7.8 million and where the total of Iraqis hired under the aid program has recently been dropping by about 9,000 Iraqis a week.

I would urge this committee to demand an immediate appearance by the director of USAID to explain the details of our aid program, to provide a clear plan for transferring funds and responsibility to the Iraqi government, to show how our projects meet valid requirements, and to prove that USAID's leadership is competent. Unless he can meet every such test, that leadership should be changed and the aid program should immediately be transferred to more competent hands.

Fourth, we need a clear declaration of our goals and principles for Iraq. We need clear and unambiguous statements from the President and Secretary of State that refute the key conspiracy theories that poison our relations and undercut the legitimacy of the Iraqi government. To be specific, we need a clear statement from the President that we will leave the moment the Iraqi government asks us to, that we will phase our forces down as soon as Iraq forces are ready to do the job, that we will not maintain permanent military bases, that we will not exploit Iraqi oil wealth or the economy, and that we will shift our aid funds to Iraq control and to benefit Iraqis, insisting only that the uses be validated and there be no corruption or waste.

Fifth, we need to have a regional strategy to support what we do in Iraq. We must give settling the Arab-Israeli conflict top priority and make our efforts fully visible. We must act through the Quartet whenever we can. In spite of our intervention in Iraq, survey after survey shows there is no single issue which causes more anger toward the United States than the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or does more to aid extremists and terrorists like bin Laden than the lack of visible high-level United States efforts to revitalize the peace process and the perception that the United States fights terrorism, but does nothing to halt settlements and occupation.

I do not for a moment advocate we halt any aspect of our struggle against terrorism or do anything to compromise the security of Israel. But we can only adopt the right policies toward Iraq if we adopt the right policies toward the Arab- Israel conflict.

Finally, Mr. Chairman, we also need to have a strategy that deals with the gulf region and with the Middle East that goes beyond rhetoric about democracy and reform. Far too much of our recent rhetoric has actually been used by our opponents to argue that we seek to overthrow governments in the region or to impose our own leadership. What we need now are practical, country by country efforts to quietly and steadily support the reformers in those countries, not noisy outside exiles. We need to press for achievable evolutionary progress steadily and without pause. We need to give human rights, the rule of law, economic reform, and demographic reform the same priority as democracy. And we need to recognize that democracy cannot work unless there are meaningful political parties and preparation for democracy to work.

In doing so, I pointed out that the odds of success in Iraq are at best even -- if one accepts the fact that in the real world the only definition of success we can actually hope to achieve is some form of pluralistic Iraqi government that can work its way through years of political and economic difficulty without direct American military support.

also pointed out that the U.S. must be prepared for failure in Iraq, but that exiting is a tactic and not a strategy. Exiting Iraq would eliminate U.S. casualties and the cost of war fighting, but create as many or more problems as it solves.

A strategy means that we must reassess and rebuild our entire position in the Middle East and Southwest Asia, restructure our security policy and regional posture in an area with some 60% of the world's proven oil reserves, deal with what Islamist extremism will claim as a massive victory, cope with a nuclear Iran, and find some way to reestablish credibility in the world.

Anthony Cordesman
In summary, we have made nine major mistakes: We went to war on the basis of the wrong intelligence and with a rationale we could not defend to the world or the Iraqis. We bypassed the Interagency process. We ignored warning after warning by U.S. intelligence experts, State Department officials, military officers with experience in the region, and outside experts that we would not be greeted as liberators fighting a just war, but by a highly nationalistic and divided people who did not want outsiders and occupiers to determine their destiny. We fought the war to remove Saddam from power without any meaningful plan for stability operations and nation building. We allowed political and economic chaos to take place as we advanced and in the immediate aftermath of Saddam's fall. We did not prepare our military forces for civil-military missions, to deal with terrorism and insurgency, to play the role of occupier in a nation with an alien religion, language and culture, or have the mix of HUMINT and weapons they needed for the "war after the war." As a result, we forced our military to slowly adapt under pressure and in the face of a growing enemy. For a year, we assumed that a proconsul in the form of the CPA could govern Iraq and plan its future, rather than Iraqis. We staffed much of the CPA with inexperienced political appointees and ideologues that spent virtually all of their time in a secure enclave and only served for brief three to six month tours. For a year, we developed idealized plans for political reform that did not survive engagement with reality. We focused far too much on national elections and drafting a constitution without having a similar focus on effective governance at the national, regional, and local levels. For a year, we had military leadership in Iraq that would not work closely with the leadership of the CPA, and which lived in a state of denial about the level of popular hostility we faced and a steadily growing insurgency. For a year, we made no serious attempt to create Iraqi military, security, and police forces that could stand on their own in dealing with a growing insurgency, terrorism, and lawlessness. Instead, we saw such Iraq forces largely as a potential threat to our idealized democracy and felt our forces could easily defeat an insurgency of 5,000-6,000 former regime loyalists. For a year, we tried to deal with an Iraqi economy that was a command kleptocracy as if it could be quickly and easily converted to a modern market-driven economy. We sent in CPA advisors with no real experience and no continuity. We created a ridiculous long-term aid plan without a meaningful understanding or survey of the economic problems Iraq faced, an understanding of Iraqi needs and expectations, and the talent in either the U.S. government or the contract community to implement such a plan or develop the kind of plans and programs focused on short and medium-term requirements that Iraq actually needed. THE PAST DOES NOT HAVE TO BE PROLOGUE TO THE FUTURE This past does not have to be a prologue to the future. During 2004, we began to correct many of our past mistakes. We have moved Iraqi policy beyond the disastrous policy cluster in the Pentagon, weakened the hold of failed neoconservatives, and begun to implement a serious Interagency approach. We have an ambassador and a commander that can work together, and much more of a true civil-military team. We still lack the civilian elements that can support nation building in high-threat areas, but the U.S. military has found ways to partially compensate. We have given sovereignty to the Iraqis and let them take over the political process. We have gradually accepted the true complexity of the political problems in Iraq, the level of popular hostility we and our forces face, and the seriousness of the insurgent threat. We have reorganized the U.S. and Coalition military posture in Iraq to fight a serious counterinsurgency and counterterrorist war, and we have begun to rethink our entire process of force transformation to shift from a Cold War focus on advanced technology to fight conventional forces to one that can deal with the very different asymmetric, political, and ideological threats we actually face. We have begun to train Iraqi military, security, and police forces for the threat they actually face, and not for a perfect secure, stable, and democratic world. We have partially understood that our aid plans were totally unrealistic, and that priority must be given to short and medium term stability and to using dollars as a substitute and supplement to bullets. We have at least begun to understand that USAID in Washington cannot deal with the challenge it faces, that outside contractors cannot manage an effective aid program in Iraq, and that dollars need to go to Iraqis and not outsiders. We need to give the Americans now in Iraq -- and especially the civilians and military actually in the field outside the Green Zone -- full credit for these changes. They have not stood idly by, failed to adapt, or failed to challenge the many failures in leadership they received from Washington.

America's "neoconservatives" may be an unmitigated national disaster in shaping policy towards Iraq, and in virtually every other aspect of foreign policy they have managed to affect. We have seen, however, that realists, true area experts, and adaptive military professionals can produce far better answers and have already begun to compensate for many of our past mistakes.

I should stress that my proposed answers have had to be formulated in a climate where there is remarkably little realistic U.S. government reporting of the metrics necessary to understand the true nature of the insurgency.

We have little meaningful data on the results of our efforts to create effective Iraqi forces, the economic problems Iraq faces, and the actual impact of our aid. We have substituted self-serving polls to justify our positions rather than to seriously and objectively poll Iraqi perceptions.

Yet, I believe that enough data are available to show that there are five steps that might well increase our chances of success well beyond the 50-50 level, and that clearly need to be taken immediately if we are to move towards success during the coming year: We must do everything we can to demonstrate the independence

Iraqis do not measure legitimacy primarily in terms of elections. They measure it in terms of the actual ability to govern, to give all Iraqis a fair share of wealth and power, to provide personal security, to provide employment and economic opportunity, to furnish education and health services, and to provide water, electricity and sewers.

They also measure legitimacy in terms of the ability of an Iraqi government to implement independent policies, to disagree with the U.S. and outside powers, and visibly take decisions without anyone looking over the Iraqi government's shoulder.

We cannot cease to advise, but we must cease to impose. Where outside support is needed, it also will always be better if it comes from the U.N., the British, or some broader international effort and not from unilateral action by the U.S.

We do not have 127,000 useful or meaningful men in these forces of the kind needed to fight an aggressive, experienced, and well-armed threat. We have somewhere around 7-11,000 that are beginning to have the training and some of the equipment necessary to directly engage insurgent forces. We have about two to three battalions that can honestly stand alone in the face of serious insurgent attack, and the first battalion with the armor necessary to survive went into service in mid-January.

I have prepared a detailed analysis of what has gone wrong and right with this effort, and again, I ask that it be included in the record. The key point of this analysis, however, is simple: Everything we do in Iraq will fail unless we develop a convincing plan to create Iraqi forces with the leadership, experience, equipment, and facilities they need to secure their country without us and actually implement it.

Creating effective Iraqi forces to replace the Coalition forces is the sine qua non for American action. There is no more devastating critique of the ongoing failures in U.S. policy than the lack of such a plan in public form -- if one exists at all. Furthermore, it must be a plan that shows the Iraqi people, the region, and the Congress and American people that we can achieve a meaningful form of victory in Iraq.

Equipment and facilities are not a casual issue. Nothing we have done to date has begun to be adequate. In fact, as an American, I find it contemptible that we so often criticize Iraqi forces for their behavior when we send them out to facilities that cannot be protected in unprotected vehicles that no American would willingly use with weapons inferior to their enemies. We then refuse to accurately report Iraqi casualties along with our own, treating their losses as less significant than ours.

Would any Senator or Congressman send their son or daughter out under these conditions if they were Iraqi? Would any member of Congress expect their son or daughter to stand and die without purpose?

Politics, governance, and security are critical, but so are economics. We need a program to meet Iraq's immediate economic needs, to help bring security, and that is run and implemented by Iraqis in ways that provide virtually all of the money to Iraqis.

Let me make it clear that I have nothing but respect for those USAID and contract personnel in the field in Iraq who have actually implemented useful projects, and done so at the risk of their lives. Many have become combatant "noncombatants" in a world where armed peacekeeping, nation building, and humanitarian intervention have become all too common.

I also appreciate the fact that the almost mindless focus on long- term aid efforts that shaped our initial aid requests has been replaced with substantial reprogramming for short-term projects that meet Iraqi needs, give the money to Iraqis, bring stability and support security efforts.

Anyone who looks at the USAID web page, however, sees nothing but a long list of plans and project efforts that are not tied to measures of effectiveness or defendable requirements. USAID in Washington seems to live in a Panglossian fantasy world where no problems and challenges really exist and no public strategy, plans, and metrics of success are needed.

We need economic stability for a nation of nearly 26 million people whose overall infrastructure is better suited to 16-18 million. We need jobs for a 7.8-million-person Iraqi work force that now has 30-40% unemployment. What we still have is an aid program based on American decisions about what is necessary run largely by foreign contractors with far too much money going to non-Iraqis -- much simply to protect projects that end up being sabotaged or dysfunctional.

The good news is that we have so far only disbursed $2.5 billion out of $18.4 billion in FY2004 aid. The bad news is that the money is desperately needed in Iraq, and that our projects only hire around 121,000 workers out of a work force of 7.8 million and the total has recently dropped by 8,000-10,000 a week.

I would urge this Committee to demand an immediate appearance by the Director of USAID to explain the details of our aid program to Iraq, to provide a clear plan for transferring the funds and responsibility to the Iraqi government, to show we actually know how well our projects met valid requirements, and prove that USAID's leadership is competent.

To be specific, we need a clear statement from the President that we will leave the moment the Iraqi government asks us to; that we will phase down our forces as soon as Iraqi forces are ready to do the job; that we will not maintain any permanent military bases; that we will not exploit Iraqi oil wealth or economy in any way; and that we are shifting our aid funds to Iraqi control and to benefit Iraqis -- insisting only that the uses be validated and there be no corruption and waste.

In spite of our intervention in Iraq, no single issue creates more anger and hostility towards the U.S., or does more to aid extremists and terrorists like bin Laden, than the lack of visible, high-level U.S. efforts to revitalize the peace process and the perception that the U.S. fights terrorism but does nothing to halt settlements and "occupation."

We must not halt our struggle against terrorism, or do anything to compromise the security of Israel. We can only establish credibility in Iraq, the Arab world, and Islamic world, however, if we both adopt the right polices towards Iraq and towards the Arab-Israeli conflict, and if we show the same balance in our dealings with Israel and the Palestinians as we did at Camp David and Tabah.

Let me conclude by saying that neither the positive actions we have taken during 2004, nor the proposals I have just made can guarantee success. We are beginning late and we have wasted precious time we did not have. Success was always uncertain, and the idea Iraq would suddenly emerge as a success that would transform the Middle East was always a fantasy that did little more than prove just how decoupled from reality America's "neoconservatives" could be.

We may well have to leave Iraq without achieving the limited definition of success I gave at the beginning of this testimony. If an elected Iraqi government asks us to leave, we must do so as quickly and with as much integrity as possible. The same is true if we are asked to compromise our military effectiveness or the integrity of our aid process.

Abandonment, however, is not an option. If we are forced to leave Iraq, we should not do so in bitterness or in anger. We should be prepared to offer aid and assistance. We should make it clear that we will do what we can regardless of the circumstances. As Vietnam and China have shown, history endures long beyond anger and frustration, and so do our vital strategic interests.

In any case, even under the best conditions, we must leave in the next two to three years, and as soon as Iraqi forces can replace us. This is not a choice. Being an advisor and a friend is both possible and desirable. However, no policy in Iraq, this region, or the world can succeed where the U.S. seeks to keep bases or remains an "occupier."

We need to prepare for this contingency now, and the key to that preparation is two fold: First, it is to deal with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in ways that can ease the anger against us in the Arab and Islamic worlds, and ultimately give Israel true security. Second, it is to rebuild and strengthen our relations with the Southern Gulf states and our other allies in the Arab world.

This second key to success is the subject for another hearing, but that we need to act now to make it clear that we will ensure the security of our Southern Gulf allies in every way we can regardless of what happens in Iraq. We will not withdraw; we will not leave them without protection against a nuclear Iran; and we fully understand how vital they are at a time when 40% of all the world's oil exports pass daily through the Strait of Hormuz and our Department of Energy projects that that percentage will raise to nearly 60% by 2025.

Anthony Cordesman
Finally, it would be to our vast benefit if the Administration and the Congress government could be far more cautious about talking about political reform and democracy in ways our enemies use to say we seek to overthrow governments in the region and impose our own leaders. What we need are practical country-by-country efforts to quietly and steadily support the reformers actually in those countries -- not noisy outside exiles.

We need to press for achievable evolutionary progress. We need to give human rights, the rule of law, economic reform, and demographic reform at least the same priority as democracy, and we need to recognize that democracy cannot work without meaningful political parties and preparation.

Anthony Cordesman
To be blunt, we need a lot less lofty rhetoric, and a lot more pragmatic action. We need country-by-country strategies and plans that move progressively towards balanced and stable reform. We need country teams in each Embassy that can work with both friendly governments and local reformers on a quiet and steady evolutionary basis. We need to work with regional experts and media, our allies, and international institutions.

Iraq: Strategy Versus Metrics: The Case for Information-Based Policy It is as easy to propose a strategy for Iraq as it is easy to have a strong opinion. The problem is to substantiate any such strategy with something approaching facts. At this point, "experts" are proposing everything from quick withdrawal to staying the course regardless of cost. The practical reality, however, is that "experts" must rely on media reports; unclassified, public relations-oriented government data; or sheer seat of the pants guesswork. 1. A FLOOD OF OPINION; A DROUGHT OF FACT No one who served during Vietnam can fail to notice that there has been a polarization of the information people do choose to use out of the limited information available. Those who oppose the war and continued intervention choose every negative press report convenient to their case. The supporters of the war "mirror image" the opponents by choosing the favorable data.

The U.S. government has responded by suppressing past reporting that has proved to be embarrassing, and by avoiding reporting information that might be negative and "spinning" data. This bias in official reporting is compounded by operational problems. Streams of individual data requests hit overburdened military and civilian staffs on the scene without any coherence and coordination. The end result is no time for structured data collection and reporting, plus the feeling such exercises are a waste of time.

The end result is confusion, rather than insight. The problem for policy making is not a lack of strategies, it is a lack of facts. It is the lack of metrics that can shed some light on what is really happening and the level of progress, problems, and risk.

Granted, no war ever has perfect metrics, but it would be far easier to know what strategy the U.S. should propose if an objective effort was made to pull together the data that are available in ways that would allow some coupling between strategy and a knowledge of the facts on the ground.

The elections to come will help provide a much better picture of the level of polarization and religious alignment of the Arab Shi'ites; Arab Sunnis, Kurds, and other minorities. The elections in the governorates will also be useful, and will the post-election power brokering and new allotment of government positions.

Metrics of governance, however, may be more useful than metrics of politics. One key indicator of stability in Iraq is to map where the government is in full control, where it has a limited or insecure presence, and where it is largely absent or ineffective. It is obvious that in at least four provinces, the Iraqi government is only partially functioning. Maps by governorate and city that show the scale of the insurgency are key measures of the level of risk and improvement/decline -- this is particularly true if such maps show the population in the area involved. It is obvious that in some half-secure areas, the government does not meet a key test from Vietnam days, it cannot operate at night or when insurgents are in the area. Similar mapping of government services adds meaning to the security test. Secure police presence is one key test. Ability to make government offices secure and functional is another. It is equally important to map out the actual distribution of key government services like pensions, economic aid, office services, etc. Most Iraqis, like most people in the world, need government services every day. Elections and politics are an episodic luxury. All of the above options would be more effective if there was a census. The rough estimates that say the population is 60% Shi'ite, 20% Sunni, 15% Kurd, and 5% other are guesstimates first made over a decade ago. Having an accurate picture of the ethnic and sectarian mix would greatly aid in understanding how the insurgency tracks relative to such factors, as well as the true nature of the population size in threatened areas.

Sophisticated, properly structured public opinion polls can be of great value in understanding Iraqi views and needs. Public opinion polls based on small samples using limited questionnaires are little more than statistical drivel. The sample base may be "statistically valid" within a limited range of percentage error in the mathematical sense, but far too often, the methodology and results are empirically absurd.

The sample base in many recent polls is far too small and excludes too many areas and insurgents. Moreover results that cannot be broken out by area, ethnicity, religion, and social background lump together so many disparate groups that they provide few insights or no controls on who is really being surveyed with any adequacy.

The answer, however, is not to avoid public opinion polls. It is rather to see them as a critical metric worth funding at a high level of repeated activity with as much data on given localities and areas, and as much data on attitudes by ethnicity and sect as possible. Some past polls have provided much of the scope for this, but few recent polls seem to have made such an effort or to have credible transparency. A key metric is being ignored or misused.

It is obvious that the U.S. government is making steadily more detailed classified efforts to understand the patterns in the fighting and the nature insurgents at a time what it has virtually suppressed all meaningful public reporting. Its daily incident reports are no longer made available on background; the Iraqi government no longer provides meaningful public estimates of Iraqi casualties, and even the broad monthly incident totals vary so much from U.S. spokesman to U.S. spokesman that they seem to have uncertain credibility.

There are several types of summary reporting that would provide far more insight into the nature of the conflict, some of which the U.S. provided on a background basis until the fall of 2004: Providing daily incident breakouts by type and effect by major city and governorate with national totals. These data were available in the past. Their censorship does not build confidence; simply confusion. Providing meaningful casualty reports by location, cause, and for all those being attacked by category. The totals of U.S. killed and wounded are an important measure, but totals are no substitute for pattern analysis by location and cause. It is also a serious reflection on the U.S. that it does not provide any meaningful reporting on Iraqi government, military, police, and civilian casualties, much less the kind of pattern and trend analysis that would help show what is happening in the war. Reporting on insurgent captures and kills. This again needs to be by governorate and major city, and show the nationality and ethic/religious character of those involved where possible. Estimates of insurgent strength by group and location. These do not have to be precise, but would both show the scope of the threat, and whether progress is estimated to be made in defeating it. The inevitable lack of precision is not an embarrassment, it is a warning. Summaries of U.S./Coalition military action. Like all of the metrics suggested these should not be so precise as to risk compromising operational security. The various press releases, however, give no picture of the level of overall military activity or activity by region, and no picture of the level of intensity in operations or the resulting trends.

efforts to create capable cadres of effective Iraqi military, security, and police forces seem to be gathering momentum at a time that the U.S. has again suppressed virtually all meaningful reporting. Some areas where meaningful metric would be extremely useful are: Combat effective military, security, and police forces in terms of manning and unit strength: The kind of meaningless totals for training and equipped manpower now being issued produce misleading totals with no correlation to war fighting or self defense capability. Leadership and quality are the issue. Capable forces versus goals over time: The key projection for strategy is how many effective forces will be created over time, and is there a stable set of goals to measure progress by. Trained manpower by service/type of force showing different levels of training: "Trained" becomes milspeak for "meaningless" when it is not tied to a clear definition of exactly what training is involved. Equipped by type of equipment: Like "trained," "equipped" is meaningless when there are no data defining what this means, and whether it meets valid requirements. For example, send Iraqis out in unarmored vehicles is not a winning move if the U.S. needs uparmored Humvees. Facility metrics: Sending men into soft or undefendable facilities is a way to either get them killed or see them break if attacked. Metrics of the adequacy of facilities are as important as metrics of equipment levels. Patterns in casualties, and in desertions and defections: These are simple metrics of how well the Iraqi forces are, or are not, doing. Chronologies and maps of Iraqi force engagements and outcome: These display how well the Iraqis fight. 6. ECONOMIC MAPPING This may be a need for nation wide economic data focused on long term planning in the future. To have a future, however, the government and Coalition needs detailed economic mapping that looks at jobs, economic activity, and how aid is flowing by major city, by governorate, and by key area.

It often will not be possible to assemble comparable or complete data, but this is not operationally necessary. A mosaic of disparate data will often red flag key problems and areas. Unemployment, access to health care, and functioning education are key metric. So are power, sanitation, water, and secure roads. The breakdown of past existing services in any area is a major warning.

There are critical overlays to such data that help measure the realities in the war: Mapping sabotage and economic attacks. Iraqi officials have issued guesstimates like a $10 billion loss to sabotage. Incident records need to be used to take a hard look at economic impacts of both insurgent and Coalition action. Sabotage that deprives areas or services, cuts or restricts nation building, and hits at key revenues or economic activity needs to be mapped and analyzed. The economic impact of the war should be known. Understanding the value and impact of aid. From the start, the public reporting by USAID has been a self-congratulatory sick joke. Even the FSU only counted actual project starts as success. Even the Communist system was not bold enough to count funds obligated or contracts signed as progress. Aid is a key weapon in counterinsurgency, but the real metrics for judging its success are: How well Iraqi expectations and requirements are being met, not simply whether things are as good or better than under Saddam, and by area and by group of Iraqis -- not by some national total. How money is being dispersed in the field by location, and particularly in high threat or insurgent areas. How sustainable project completions are in terms of surviving attack and continuing to function to meet a need once "completed." Linking aid to counterinsurgency impacts. The reprogramming of aid has tied substantial funds to local efforts to use dollars as a substitute for bullets. Mapping this short term aid flow in insurgent areas is a metric of how aid impacts on warfighting. 7. THE LIMITS OF DATA One final, and hopefully obvious, point needs to be made about the above suggestions. A flood data may produce a flood of analysis but there is no reason it should produce a flood of wisdom. Every metric suggested above has limits and can produce confusing and sometimes contradictory result. No one set of metrics is likely to be decisive, and trend analysis will be critical.

Nevertheless, any one who has to analyze the current insurgency in Iraq has to be struck by how many strong opinions have been built on so weak a foundation of facts. Iraq: Strategy Versus Metrics: The Case for Information-Based Policy It is as easy to propose a strategy for Iraq as it is easy to have a strong opinion. The problem is to substantiate any such strategy with something approaching facts. At this point, "experts" are proposing everything from quick withdrawal to staying the course regardless of cost. The practical reality, however, is that "experts" must rely on media reports; unclassified, public relations-oriented government data; or sheer seat of the pants guesswork. 1. A FLOOD OF OPINION; A DROUGHT OF FACT No one who served during Vietnam can fail to notice that there has been a polarization of the information people do choose to use out of the limited information available. Those who oppose the war and continued intervention choose every negative press report convenient to their case. The supporters of the war "mirror image" the opponents by choosing the favorable data.

The U.S. government has responded by suppressing past reporting that has proved to be embarrassing, and by avoiding reporting information that might be negative and "spinning" data. This bias in official reporting is compounded by operational problems. Streams of individual data requests hit overburdened military and civilian staffs on the scene without any coherence and coordination. The end result is no time for structured data collection and reporting, plus the feeling such exercises are a waste of time.

The end result is confusion, rather than insight. The problem for policy making is not a lack of strategies, it is a lack of facts. It is the lack of metrics that can shed some light on what is really happening and the level of progress, problems, and risk.

Granted, no war ever has perfect metrics, but it would be far easier to know what strategy the U.S. should propose if an objective effort was made to pull together the data that are available in ways that would allow some coupling between strategy and a knowledge of the facts on the ground.

The elections to come will help provide a much better picture of the level of polarization and religious alignment of the Arab Shi'ites; Arab Sunnis, Kurds, and other minorities. The elections in the governorates will also be useful, and will the post-election power brokering and new allotment of government positions.

Metrics of governance, however, may be more useful than metrics of politics. One key indicator of stability in Iraq is to map where the government is in full control, where it has a limited or insecure presence, and where it is largely absent or ineffective. It is obvious that in at least four provinces, the Iraqi government is only partially functioning. Maps by governorate and city that show the scale of the insurgency are key measures of the level of risk and improvement/decline -- this is particularly true if such maps show the population in the area involved. It is obvious that in some half-secure areas, the government does not meet a key test from Vietnam days, it cannot operate at night or when insurgents are in the area. Similar mapping of government services adds meaning to the security test. Secure police presence is one key test. Ability to make government offices secure and functional is another. It is equally important to map out the actual distribution of key government services like pensions, economic aid, office services, etc. Most Iraqis, like most people in the world, need government services every day. Elections and politics are an episodic luxury. All of the above options would be more effective if there was a census. The rough estimates that say the population is 60% Shi'ite, 20% Sunni, 15% Kurd, and 5% other are guesstimates first made over a decade ago. Having an accurate picture of the ethnic and sectarian mix would greatly aid in understanding how the insurgency tracks relative to such factors, as well as the true nature of the population size in threatened areas.

Sophisticated, properly structured public opinion polls can be of great value in understanding Iraqi views and needs. Public opinion polls based on small samples using limited questionnaires are little more than statistical drivel. The sample base may be "statistically valid" within a limited range of percentage error in the mathematical sense, but far too often, the methodology and results are empirically absurd.

The sample base in many recent polls is far too small and excludes too many areas and insurgents. Moreover results that cannot be broken out by area, ethnicity, religion, and social background lump together so many disparate groups that they provide few insights or no controls on who is really being surveyed with any adequacy.

The answer, however, is not to avoid public opinion polls. It is rather to see them as a critical metric worth funding at a high level of repeated activity with as much data on given localities and areas, and as much data on attitudes by ethnicity and sect as possible. Some past polls have provided much of the scope for this, but few recent polls seem to have made such an effort or to have credible transparency. A key metric is being ignored or misused.

It is obvious that the U.S. government is making steadily more detailed classified efforts to understand the patterns in the fighting and the nature insurgents at a time what it has virtually suppressed all meaningful public reporting. Its daily incident reports are no longer made available on background; the Iraqi government no longer provides meaningful public estimates of Iraqi casualties, and even the broad monthly incident totals vary so much from U.S. spokesman to U.S. spokesman that they seem to have uncertain credibility.

There are several types of summary reporting that would provide far more insight into the nature of the conflict, some of which the U.S. provided on a background basis until the fall of 2004: Providing daily incident breakouts by type and effect by major city and governorate with national totals. These data were available in the past. Their censorship does not build confidence; simply confusion. Providing meaningful casualty reports by location, cause, and for all those being attacked by category. The totals of U.S. killed and wounded are an important measure, but totals are no substitute for pattern analysis by location and cause. It is also a serious reflection on the U.S. that it does not provide any meaningful reporting on Iraqi government, military, police, and civilian casualties, much less the kind of pattern and trend analysis that would help show what is happening in the war. Reporting on insurgent captures and kills. This again needs to be by governorate and major city, and show the nationality and ethic/religious character of those involved where possible. Estimates of insurgent strength by group and location. These do not have to be precise, but would both show the scope of the threat, and whether progress is estimated to be made in defeating it. The inevitable lack of precision is not an embarrassment, it is a warning. Summaries of U.S./Coalition military action. Like all of the metrics suggested these should not be so precise as to risk compromising operational security. The various press releases, however, give no picture of the level of overall military activity or activity by region, and no picture of the level of intensity in operations or the resulting trends.

efforts to create capable cadres of effective Iraqi military, security, and police forces seem to be gathering momentum at a time that the U.S. has again suppressed virtually all meaningful reporting. Some areas where meaningful metric would be extremely useful are: Combat effective military, security, and police forces in terms of manning and unit strength: The kind of meaningless totals for training and equipped manpower now being issued produce misleading totals with no correlation to war fighting or self defense capability. Leadership and quality are the issue. Capable forces versus goals over time: The key projection for strategy is how many effective forces will be created over time, and is there a stable set of goals to measure progress by. Trained manpower by service/type of force showing different levels of training: "Trained" becomes milspeak for "meaningless" when it is not tied to a clear definition of exactly what training is involved. Equipped by type of equipment: Like "trained," "equipped" is meaningless when there are no data defining what this means, and whether it meets valid requirements. For example, send Iraqis out in unarmored vehicles is not a winning move if the U.S. needs uparmored Humvees. Facility metrics: Sending men into soft or undefendable facilities is a way to either get them killed or see them break if attacked. Metrics of the adequacy of facilities are as important as metrics of equipment levels. Patterns in casualties, and in desertions and defections: These are simple metrics of how well the Iraqi forces are, or are not, doing. Chronologies and maps of Iraqi force engagements and outcome: These display how well the Iraqis fight. 6. ECONOMIC MAPPING This may be a need for nation wide economic data focused on long term planning in the future. To have a future, however, the government and Coalition needs detailed economic mapping that looks at jobs, economic activity, and how aid is flowing by major city, by governorate, and by key area.

It often will not be possible to assemble comparable or complete data, but this is not operationally necessary. A mosaic of disparate data will often red flag key problems and areas. Unemployment, access to health care, and functioning education are key metric. So are power, sanitation, water, and secure roads. The breakdown of past existing services in any area is a major warning.

There are critical overlays to such data that help measure the realities in the war: Mapping sabotage and economic attacks. Iraqi officials have issued guesstimates like a $10 billion loss to sabotage. Incident records need to be used to take a hard look at economic impacts of both insurgent and Coalition action. Sabotage that deprives areas or services, cuts or restricts nation building, and hits at key revenues or economic activity needs to be mapped and analyzed. The economic impact of the war should be known. Understanding the value and impact of aid. From the start, the public reporting by USAID has been a self-congratulatory sick joke. Even the FSU only counted actual project starts as success. Even the Communist system was not bold enough to count funds obligated or contracts signed as progress. Aid is a key weapon in counterinsurgency, but the real metrics for judging its success are: How well Iraqi expectations and requirements are being met, not simply whether things are as good or better than under Saddam, and by area and by group of Iraqis -- not by some national total. How money is being dispersed in the field by location, and particularly in high threat or insurgent areas. How sustainable project completions are in terms of surviving attack and continuing to function to meet a need once "completed." Linking aid to counterinsurgency impacts. The reprogramming of aid has tied substantial funds to local efforts to use dollars as a substitute for bullets. Mapping this short term aid flow in insurgent areas is a metric of how aid impacts on warfighting. 7. THE LIMITS OF DATA One final, and hopefully obvious, point needs to be made about the above suggestions. A flood data may produce a flood of analysis but there is no reason it should produce a flood of wisdom. Every metric suggested above has limits and can produce confusing and sometimes contradictory result. No one set of metrics is likely to be decisive, and trend analysis will be critical.

Nevertheless, any one who has to analyze the current insurgency in Iraq has to be struck by how many strong opinions have been built on so weak a foundation of facts. ______

"Playing the Course:" A Strategy for Reshaping U.S. Policy in Iraq and the Middle East EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The odds of lasting U.S. success in Iraq are now at best even, and may well be worse. The U.S. can almost certainly win every military battle and clash, but it is far less certain to win the political and economic war. U.S. success is also heavily dependent on two variables that the U.S. can influence, but not control. The first is the emergence of a government that Iraqis see as legitimate and which can effectively govern. The second is the ability to create Iraqi military and security forces that can largely replace U.S. and other Coalition forces no later than 2006. Improving the Odds in Iraq

This paper argues that U.S. success in Iraq is too important for the U.S. to withdraw in spite of the present odds and that it should "play the course" as long as it has a credible chance of success. It also argues that there are a series of steps that the U.S. can take to improve the odds of success, many of which build on initiatives that the U.S. already has underway.

These suggestions affect five separate areas of U.S. effort: Providing a clear statement of U.S. intentions that will make it clear the U.S. is seeking to create a viable and legitimate government in Iraq, and will not stay in Iraq once this occurs. This statement will address the major conspiracy theories that undermine U.S. efforts, and be backed by tangible actions. Stepping up aid efforts to develop effective governance, and placing a new emphasis on local as well as national governance. Giving even higher priority and resources to the effort to develop effective Iraqi military and security forces. Altering U.S. methods of warfighting to strengthen the political content of U.S. strategy and tactics. Recasting the economic aid effort to focus on Iraqi internal stability during 2005-2006, and transferring responsibility for planning, management and execution to the Iraqi government, while phasing out U.S. contracting efforts as soon as possible.

Taking these steps does not mean that the U.S. should "stay the course" if such measures do not work. The U.S. faces too much Iraqi anger and resentment to try to hold on in the face of clear failure, and achieving any lasting success in terms of Iraqi political acceptance means the U.S. must seek to largely withdraw over the next two years.

To paraphrase an old country and western song, the U.S. needs to know when to hold them, know when to fold them, and know when to run. If the U.S. is asked to leave by an Iraqi government, it must leave. The same is true if Iraqi efforts at governance decisively and/or if the U.S. cannot create effective enough Iraqi security forces to largely replace U.S. and coalition forces. Fighting a counterinsurgency campaign is one thing; the U.S. must not stay if Iraq devolves into civil war.

There are, however, different ways to leave and some are much better than others. Stating and demonstrating that the U.S. has the right intentions will make it clearer to the world that the U.S. made every effort to succeed and help to defuse the impact of U.S. withdrawal. Efforts to strengthen the Iraqi government as much as possible as soon as possible not only raise the odds of success; they raise the odds that stability will eventually emerge even if the U.S. is forced to withdraw. Efforts to strengthen the role of the U.N. and to multilateralize as much of the aid process as possible will have the same effect.

At the same time, the U.S. must make every effort to strengthen its position in other parts of the Gulf and the Middle East. Virtually the same strategy is needed whether the U.S. succeeds or fails in Iraq. Even "victory" in Iraq will be highly relative, and defeat will force the U.S. to reinforce its position in the entire region. The specific steps the U.S. needs to take are: Give the settlement of the Arab-Israel conflict the highest possible priority in the most visible form possible. Rebuild U.S. ties to friendly Gulf states like Saudi Arabia and strengthen ties to all of the GCC states, emphasizing cooperation in dealing with terrorism and Islamic extremism. Adopt a more flexible policy in dealing with Iran. Prepare for the potential impact of problems in Iraq in dealing with the fighting in Afghanistan. Recast U.S. energy policy to deal with the reality that the U.S. will have growing strategic dependence on Gulf and Middle Eastern oil exports for the next 20 years, and their security will become steadily more important. Adopt a realistic approach to political reform in the region that will improve U.S. relations with both moderate regimes and with the peoples of the area. Give the political dimension of counterterrorism a new priority, addressing the many aspects of the way in which the U.S. now fights the war of terrorism that needlessly hurt relations with the Islamic and Arab world, and restrict the educational, business, and other relations necessary to create a common effort to deal with terrorism and extremism. Almost all of these steps are necessary regardless of the outcome of the U.S. intervention in Iraq, but they become far more urgent if the U.S. is forced to withdraw or Iraqi governance fails. In short, the U.S. strategy for Iraq must be part of a broader strategy for the Middle East, and one founded on pragmatism and not ideology.

Regardless of how we got into Iraq, and regardless of our mistakes to date, we are there. Our strategic interests are now linked to both our success and that of the Iraqis. We can certainly survive withdrawal and failure, but the result will be seen as a serious defeat unless an Iraqi government emerges that is clearly better than Saddam Hussein's regime, unless Iraq holds together, and unless Iraq makes progress over time.

We have set the rules of the game to the extent we can, we hold the cards we are going to get, and we have made our bet. The most we can do at this point is hold, fold, or raise the ante. We do not need to rush towards some form of exit strategy before it is clear whether we will win or lose.

At the same time, we do not need a pointless ideological commitment to "stay the course," simply carrying on with what we are already doing. We need detailed and tangible ideas about how to make things better, and improve the odds of success. The challenge is how to best "play the course." It is how to take a bad to mediocre hand and increase the chance of getting a productive outcome.

The fact remains, however, that the odds of success are now at best even, and may well be worse. Popular anger and hostility towards the U.S. and Coalition forces has grown steadily since the spring of 2003. Some 11% of Arab Shi'ites and over 33% of Arab Sunnis saw attacks on Coalition forces as justified by early 2004.\1\ The vast majority of Arab Iraqis never saw the Coalition invasion as legitimate, and some 70% wanted Coalition forces to leave Iraq when sovereignty was returned to the Interim Iraqi Government in June 2004. More than 80% of the Iraqi Arab's surveyed this summer expressed deep distrust in Coalition forces.\2\ Iraqis still express hope in the future, but they do not feel the Coalition is capable of bringing either security or economic welfare. While no reliable polling has emerged since a new surge in the fighting in September 2004, it seems virtually certain that Iraq resentment of the U.S. and Coalition has steadily increased in recent months.

We must do what we can within very tight time limits, knowing that we may well fail. Iraq may divide, there may be civil war, and the Interim Government may fail without leaving a viable option. The end result of the series of elections to come may well be that the U.S. is asked to leave, asked to stay on Iraqi terms that largely consist of our providing aid, or tied to a government that does not have adequate popular support and legitimacy. "Playing the course" does not mean the U.S. can count on winning, and certainly does not mean staying beyond the point where "playing the course" is no longer productive. It also means that U.S. programs must be carefully tailored to the limits imposed by the "art of the possible." Trying to implement the "art of the desirable" is an almost certain road to failure.

Accordingly, we need to consider both whether there are steps we can take to improve the current odds and when and how to leave. To paraphrase a country and western song, we have to "know when to hold them, know when to fold them, and know when to run." We also need to understand that any strategy to "play the course" in Iraq must be tied to a regional strategy that will both increase our chances of success and our ability to leave under the best circumstances possible.

:" SEEKING AN ACHIEVABLE VICTORY One key decision has to be made to have any real chance of winning. This is to define "victory" in narrow and pragmatic enough terms so that we have a credible hope of achieving it. By this standard, success can be measured as the emergence of an Iraqi government that holds the country together, offers more in terms of pluralism and the rule of law than did Saddam and the Ba'ath, which is seen as broadly legitimate by most Iraqis, and which can establish conditions for economic development.

As a corollary, we need to recognize that we cannot overcome many critical forces affecting the situation after more than a year of war and occupation. These forces include the present level of Iraqi resentment of the invasion and occupation, Iraqi nationalism, and cultural and religious tension. Success means the U.S. must transfer power to an Iraqi government that the vast majority of Iraqis see as legitimate, and leave Iraq as soon as this is practical -- at least to the extent that the U.S. does not maintain significant military forces or military bases, and does not maintain the Green Zone and an "imperial" Embassy. The U.S. can, at most, stay in Iraq for one or two more years and it must do what it can as quickly as possible.

Moreover, we need to preserve a sense of history. Iraq has massive political, security, ethnic, religious, and economic problems that will take a half a decade to a decade to play out. The chances are that it will undergo several periods of crisis and instability after we leave. We can continue to influence this situation, but we can scarcely hope to control it. We need to understand -- and make clear to Iraq and the world -- that the transition to full independence, and American military withdrawal, place the responsibility for Iraq's future clearly in Iraqi hands. We must not claim either levels of success or responsibility that will allow critics to blame the U.S. for future problems it cannot control.

A future Iraqi government does not have to be favorable to the U.S. in any narrow sense. The U.S. does not need Iraqi dependency; it needs Iraqi success. A neutral government that distances itself from the U.S., or even one that is aggressively independent, will be perfectly acceptable. The key test of success is that such a government can hold the country together, gives every ethnic and religious group a relatively fair share of wealth and power, does not represent extreme factions, has no broader regional ambitions, and creates a climate where both internal stability and the welfare of the Iraqi people is likely to improve over time.

In fact, from both an Iraqi and regional viewpoint, the stronger and more independent the Iraqi government becomes the better. The U.S. does not need a client or dependent, and its best chance for being seen as having conducted a "just war" (or at least an excusable one) is to show that it leaves when it is asked to and leaves Iraqis clearly in charge. Put differently, the key in Iraq to knowing how long to "hold them" is having a clear plan to "fold."

As a corollary, "playing the course" means that there are several objectives the U.S. not only must not pursue, but also must conspicuously and openly reject: One is to try to use Iraq as a tool or lever for changing the region. The Iraqi example may have some impact over time, but nothing could be more destructive to regional efforts at reform than any deliberate effort to use Iraq as some kind of springboard for change in other countries. A meaningful reform strategy must be a country-by-country U.S. effort to encourage the positive evolutionary trends inside each country. Moreover, the U.S. must accept the fact that any foreseeable government that is legitimate in Iraqi eyes will sharply oppose present U.S. policies in dealing with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and will be hostile to Israel's present government and policies. Iraq must not become a U.S. military base. The U.S. may well need to maintain a strong advisory effort, but if the U.S. tries to maintain combat forces and bases under any conditions other than the broadest-based demand from Iraqis as a whole, it will do even more to alienate the Iraqi people, the region, and Islamic world. This does not, however, preclude U.S. efforts to create a regional security structure -- building on institutions like the GCC -- which could tie Iraq to a more stable regional security posture where the U.S. could both act as the ultimate guarantor of Iraq's security and work with Iraqi forces in a regional context. The U.S. must establish Iraq's independence in terms of its politics, economics, and above all oil. Iraq may well need continuing U.S. aid in its political and economic development, in addition to its military and security forces. The U.S. must, however, avoid even the image of seeking to continue to dominate Iraqi politics, and one key aspect of U.S. policy during 2005 and 2006 must be to relocate the U.S. Embassy and Green Zone as quickly as possible, and shrink the U.S. Embassy to something around 20% of its present size. The CPA will be a lasting model of how not to do things, and its imperial image has left a legacy that the U.S. must distance itself from as soon as possible. The U.S. mission in Iraq must be sized to meet key needs, but the goal must be to make it an equal among equals, not a center of political power. Establish total transparency in showing that the U.S. has not taken any economic advantage of Iraq and has taken no steps to give U.S. firms a lasting advantage in any aspect of the Iraqi economy. This does not mean that the U.S. should not encourage U.S. foreign investment, in oil and in every other area. It must do so, however, purely in market terms. The U.S. government, and especially the U.S. Embassy, must be extremely careful not to lever influence to the unfair advantage of U.S. firms, and it must cut itself loose from aid contractors as soon as humanly possible. It must exert Draconian ruthlessness in stopping any past ORHA, CPA, or U.S. military personnel from exploiting their past positions.

The U.S. needs to openly demonstrate to Iraqis, the region, and the world that it defines success in terms of Iraqi interests, not some effort to directly serve its economic and strategic interests. So far, the U.S. has not made this sufficiently clear or even done a good job of articulating its intensions in ways that reach Iraqis and the region. President Bush has spoken in generalities, and his senior officials have either failed to define U.S. intentions and objectives or have done so in ways that had had little practical impact -- such as speaking in U.S. press conferences.

President Bush should take the opportunity of his reelection and/or the coming Iraq elections to make a statement to the Iraqi people and the world that clearly defines U.S. intentions and refutes the most dangerous conspiracy theories affecting Iraqi and regional behavior. To be specific, he should state that: The U.S. will only stay in Iraq until the insurgency is over and the Iraqi people have chosen a legitimate government, and will leave immediately if asked to do so by an elected Iraqi government; The U.S. has no intention of interfering in Iraqi elections or internal politics. It will accept any elected government as legitimate; The U.S. is training and equipping Iraqi forces to take over both the defense of the nation and internal security missions, and will phase out its military presence as Iraqi forces show they can perform these missions. It will do so earlier, if asked by the Iraqi government. The U.S. is bound by the policies set by the Iraqi Interim Government, and will not conduct military operations that have not been approved by that government. The U.S. have no interest in controlling Iraqi oil resources and exports, and is firmly committed to aiding the Iraqi Oil Ministry in developing Iraq's resources through open competition on global market terms. All decisions over the future development of Iraq's petroleum resources will be made by the Iraqi government. The U.S. is not seeking any other economic interest in Iraq, or any favoritism for U.S. companies. The U.S. believes that Iraq must have modern, professional military forces strong and well equipped enough to defend the nation without relying on U.S. and Coalition forces. The U.S. will actively aid the Iraqi government in achieving this role. It will encourage the development of regional security efforts, possibly including the expansion of the GCC. It will provide future military support to Iraq only if requested, and will consult with its regional allies and the U.N. in doing so. The U.S. will not maintain any permanent military bases in Iraq, and will transfer all facilities to the Iraqi government upon U.S. withdrawal. The U.S. will continue to provide military assistance and training if the Iraqi government requests this, but actively encourages other nations to join it in this role. The U.S. is not seeking to dictate the modernization and restructuring of the Iraqi economy. It is removing the strings from its aid process, and will begin to transfer the management of all U.S. economic aid to the Iraqi government, and allow the government to use such funds for its own projects using Iraqi contractors. It will only act to ensure that the projects are legitimate and are honestly and effectively implemented. The U.S. will fully withdraw from the Green Zone once Iraq is secure and an Iraqi government is in place, and will shift its mission to the size and role of a conventional Embassy. The U.S. is seeking full debt and reparations forgiveness for Iraq, and is committed to providing long-term assistance if this is needed. The U.S. believes that the role of the U.N. and other nations in ensuring free and fair elections, providing aid, and helping to train the Iraqi government and security forces should be steadily expanded. Its only concern is that the expansion of multilateralism must be accompanied by effective plans and the consummate resources. President Bush not only needs to formally state such goals, he and U.S. officials will need to regularly repeat them and aggressively refute conspiracy theories and charges as necessary.

There are two critical variables in Iraq over which the U.S. still has considerable influence, but no direct control: The first is how well Iraqis do in shaping their own government, executing governance at the national and local level, and giving the new Iraq true legitimacy among all of the key elements of Iraq's population. The second is the ability and willingness of Iraqi military and security forces to largely -- if not totally -- replace U.S. and other Coalition forces no later than the end of 2006.

Past U.S. actions have helped to create an extraordinarily demanding political schedule, and which ensures political tension, turmoil, and a constant risk of turnover in key officials and decision makers: November-December: Parties and candidates emerge, party lists are made public, platforms emerge; polling systems are defined. 27-31 January (30 January election day): Elections for 275- person National Assembly. February-March: Iraqi Transitional Government takes power. 15 August: National Assembly completes draft of permanent constitution. 15 October: Referendum for permanent constitution. 15 December: Elections for government completed -- if constitutional referendum approves constitution. 31 December: Elected government assumes office. There are four critical risks that both Iraqis and the U.S. will face throughout this process, and that Iraqis will probably continue to face for up to a decade after the U.S. and other coalition forces withdraw: The risk that a majority of Arab Sunnis will not participate in the political process or will be actively hostile to the U.S. and evolving Iraqi government. The fighting in Fallujah and other areas may create a more secure climate where Sunnis see participation as both necessary and desirable. This, however, is highly dependent on the quality of the aid and governance that follows the fighting and Sunnis seeing the government as providing valid political options. The battle for Fallujah in November 2004 provoked a major increase in attacks in other areas, and widespread Sunni anger and resentment. There is a significant risk the Sunnis will not join in the process and remain actively or passively hostile. The risk the Shi'ites will divide and see a return to the kind of violence and insurgency al Sadr has carried out in the past. It seems likely that the majority of Shi'ites will support the political process because it is to their advantage. This does not, however, mean Shi'ite support for the U.S. role, or that a significant minority of Shi'ites will not be alienated or follow more radical leaders like Sadr. There is a natural dilemma in Shi'ite politics. Including leaders like Sadr can radicalize them, excluding them can lead to violence. No compromise between Kurd, Arab, and other ethnic factions can please everyone. The Kurdish leadership has so far been pragmatic in compromising its demands, and the leaders of the Iraqi Interim Government have been equally pragmatic in accepting limited autonomy and de facto federalism. However, a constitution still has to be written and implemented, oil revenues and other economic problems must be dealt with, and serious ethnic problems over land and repatriation must be dealt with. Above all, the evolution of the Iraqi government must produce a political process the Kurds trust and are willing to participate in. The political and electoral process will either break down, or -- more probably -- produce a set of political compromises that keep the existing leadership in power without allowing for legitimate opposition, debate, and electoral contests. As of late November 2003, the Iraqi Electoral Commission had approved some 156 political parties out of requests by a total of 2l2. As of that time, no party had had a chance to campaign or declare a clear program, and many were brand new. The Interim Government was divided. For example, the Iraqi National Accord party led by Prime Minister Ayad was opposed by the new "Iraqi" party of President Ghazi al-Yawer. The leading established parties include the KDP and PUK Kurdish parties; three Shi'ite parties, and no Sunni parties. The dilemma is that Iraq does need strong and coherent leadership, but also needs a transparent enough political process to have legitimacy in the eyes of the Iraq people and allow minorities and factions to feel they can be heard, participate in the process, and have a credible hope of being represented now or in the future. The need to shape an effective Iraqi political process through the elections in January, the constitution referendum, and the full elections in late 2005 would pose an immense challenge in a divided nation, with little real political experience, even in peacetime. The Iraqis urgently need as much outside aid as possible in both learning how to create a political process that can minimize these risks and making the new Iraqi government as effective as possible. At the same time, an Iraqi government can only become legitimate and effective if the U.S. and the international community recognize that Iraqis and the evolving Iraqi Government must make as many decisions as possible and that the existing political process must become far more inclusive and popular in character.

The U.S. cannot reinvent the wheel by trying to change the current political calendar. No form of U.S. interference can substitute for Iraqi progress, and the U.S. cannot constantly interfere without discrediting Iraqi efforts. The U.S. is no longer the decision-maker, it is an ally.

One of the hardest tasks the U.S. faces over the next two years is to restrict U.S. actions to aid and advice, and to preserve a proper, steadily growing, and visible distance between the U.S. team in Iraq and a sovereign Iraqi government. One method is to try to expand the role of the U.N. and other nations in providing political advice and support so that the U.S. is not seen as dictating or as the only advisor. This could include expanding the role of Britain and other Coalition states and give them the lead wherever possible. Turning to other nations, however, is likely to offer only limited help, and will sometime do little more than introduce new complications.

The most important way to strengthen Iraqi capability to govern, and Iraqi legitimacy, is to give the Iraqis control over as much of every aspect of the nation building and security effort as soon as possible, and let them control and manage their aid resources. It is to let the Iraqis make their own choices and own mistakes. In general, it will be far better to have Iraqis do things badly than have Americans do them badly -- and some times even well.

In this context, it is deeply disturbing to note that as of November 3, the U.S. had dispersed only $96 million in aid funds for "democracy" as part of the Iraq Relief and Reconstruction Program (IRRP). The U.S. Embassy Weekly Report states that the 2207 Report goal for the program was originally $831 million, of which the Congress actually apportioned $541 million.

Even these totals may be misleading. An analyst from the Congressional Research Service notes that there was no "recommended" program (Admin request) for democracy-building activities in the original FY2004 supplemental, although other activities, such as civil society and rule of law in the original request could be interpreted as having something to do with "democracy." Congress added $100 million for this specific purpose in the enacted legislation. By January 2004, after the June 2004 transition plan was announced (November 15, 2003), the Administration shifted funds around to make the democracy sector larger -- it became $458 million, later $451 million. The September 2004 Administration re-allocation request to Congress would have raised "democracy" by $180 million to $631 million. It is unclear why the figure for "democracy building" has gone up to $831 million, but it appears that either Congress moved more money to the justice/democracy category than the Administration requested or the Administration did a quick re-think of needs in mid to late-September. As of 11/17/04, the Administration has only obligated $473 million and spent $118 million of the $831 million available in "democracy building" funds.\3\

Similarly, the U.S. had dispersed only $33 million out of an apportionment of $290 million in funds for education, refugees, human rights, and government. (The 2207 Report goal was $379 million.) It had dispersed only $56 million out of $979 million in funds for justice, public safety, and civil society. The 2207 Report goal called for $1,122 million.\4\

If one ignores the fact there are conflicting data, and combines all of these programs as reported by the Department of State on November 3, 2004, the U.S. has dispersed a total of only $185 million out of $1,800 million in apportioned funds, with an original 2207 Report goal that called for $2,332 million. Given the scale of requirement to prepare for pluralism and some form of federalism, and the desperate urgency imposed by the political calendar, the current level of effort simply cannot support anything like the program needed. The U.S. effort to aid Iraqi governance is not playing the course; it is staying on the sidelines.

As in every aspect of the U.S. aid program in Iraq, there are many people in the field doing a good job with the resources they have, and taking serious risks in doing so. To put it bluntly, however, the U.S. either has a meaningful program it can actually implement or it does not. If the U.S. does have anything approaching an adequate program, it needs to develop a coherent statement of what that program is, establish clear metrics and milestones, and constantly reexamine its scale and content separate from other aid activities. If -- as seems more likely -- it has incoherent good intentions -- and bits and pieces of a program actually in the field -- the entire aid program affecting governance needs to be recast to suit the level of urgency in Iraq and the political calendar the U.S. is trying to make work.

The problems involved are further compounded by the past history of U.S. mistakes and failure in creating effective local governance documented in the International Crisis Croup (ICG) report of October 27, 2004. It will be extremely difficult to work out a political process of power sharing at the top of the central government, and it will almost certainly be years before the national lists and parties learn how to work together effectively and develop practical national political agendas. Effective and legitimate local government at the provincial, city, and town level is one way to both give each area and faction representation and to shape the broader democratic process.

As the ICG report describes in detail, basic reforms are needed in the way the Interim Government deals with provincial and local governments, in creating effective provincial councils and local governments, in the role played by the U.S. and its Coalition allies, and in the role played by the U.N. Creating an effective national consensus and government also requires that this progress be made in parallel with the national political process -- particularly if Iraqi political leaders choose lists and rig a national government in the January 2005 elections which many Iraqis do not regard as legitimate.

Some form of revenue sharing may also be critical if various regions and factions are to be convinced that they will get a fair share of the nation's wealth. This is particularly true of oil revenue -- which for the foreseeable future will underpin the national budget instead of tax and other income sources. It is easy to mistake "federalism" as being a matter of political power. It is a matter of financial power as well, particularly in almost exclusively Sunni areas like Al Anbar and in the Kurdish dominated north.

The U.S. needs to publicize its efforts to help Iraq achieve success in governance and make it clear that its aid program is designed to help the Iraqis make peaceful pluralistic choices, not create a U.S. sponsored government. It needs to describe what it is doing to show it does not favor a given mix of ethnic and religious groups, and report problems and failures as well as success.

At the same time, the U.S. should make it clear to Iraqis and the world that when there are problems in governance, U.S. aid and influence cannot directly alter or correct them. As is the case in every area of U.S. action, Iraqis must not only be in charge, but be held publicly accountable. The constant effort to spin every minor accomplishment into success is precisely the wrong approach. Transparency and accountability serve three key purposes: (a) the independence and legitimacy of the Iraqi government and political process is clear, (b) the U.S. is not held accountable for Iraqi failures if it stays or withdraws, and (c) Iraqis are pressured to take responsibility.

The U.S. must demonstrate through its actions that it will actually begin to leave as soon as the Iraqi government, military, and security forces can do the job. It needs to demonstrate it through phased withdrawals and changes in its role. The U.S. should not set rigid deadlines, which will become targets for insurgents and opponents of the Iraqi government, but it should seek to do as much as possible during 2005 and if it does not succeed by the end of 2006, it seems likely that it will have effectively been defeated. More than 70% of Iraqis polled wanted the U.S. forces out as early as the fall of 2003, and the figure was well in excess of 80% by mid-2004.

This is one of many reasons why the U.S. needs to aggressively and openly seek to expand the role of the U.N. and other nations in helping Iraq develop its governance and political process. Just seeking multilateralism expands the legitimacy of the U.S. effort. Achieving it, particularly if the country becomes more secure, will be much more important. It will show Iraqis and the world that the U.S. is serious; that its efforts are designed to create an independent and legitimate government and that it is seeking to improve, not dictate, Iraq's future. It will also create an important process of continuity as the U.S. phases down its effort and if the U.S. has to withdraw rapidly in a crisis.

The second critical variable is the ability and willingness of Iraqi military and security forces to largely -- if not totally -- replace U.S. and other Coalition forces no later than the end of 2006. As has been touched upon earlier, it has been clear since early 2004 that Iraqis bitterly resent U.S. domination of the military security effort, and polls in 2004 put hostility at well above the 80% level.

At the same time, poll after poll shows Iraqis see physical security as the most important single issue in their lives, followed by economic and educational security. Equally important, the same polls that reflected the unpopularity of Coalition forces reflected great popular confidence in the Iraqi army and police -- although far more out of hope for what they might become in the future than their capabilities at the time the polls were taken.\5\

There is no question that creating the kinds of Iraqi forces that are required is a high risk effort that will have to be rushed forward under adverse circumstances. It is also almost certain that if polls were taken now -- after Najaf, Baghdad, Samarra, Fallujah, and Mosul -- the Iraqi people would show far less confidence. Nevertheless, the only practical solution to popular hostility to coalition forces is to create strong Iraqi military security forces as soon as possible, and to keep up the effort regardless of any near term problems and reversals. "Iraqiazation" either has to be made to work, or Iraq will become a mirror image of the failure of "Vietnamization" in Vietnam: Coalition military victories will become increasingly irrelevant.

The U.S. military and U.S. Embassy now seem to clearly understand this, as does the Iraqi Interim Government. The failures at the policy levels of the U.S. government, CPA, and shadow Iraqi government that gave General Eaton a hopeless mix of tasks and resources through May of 2004 seem to have been corrected. General Petraeus and the Multi- National Security Transition Command (MNSTC-I) may now be getting much of the support they need.\6\

It is disturbing, however, that the U.S. has stopped issuing meaningful public information on the equipment and training effort, and has cut the content of the Iraq Weekly Status Report to the point where it has limited value. Like the empty measures of success contained in USAID reports, the end result is that there is no way to relate what is happening to any meaningful picture of actual requirements and the measures of accomplishment that are provided are the kind of empty, self-congratulatory statements typical of public relations exercises.

The only data on expenditure cover the Iraq Relief and Reconstruction Program (IRRP), but do not reflect reprogramming. Taken at face value, they indicate that the U.S. had dispersed $798 million for its Security and Law Enforcement Program at a rate of only $8 million a week.\7\ This compares with an original program level of $3,235 million, which was raised to $5,045 million program for the FY2004 fiscal year because of reprogramming on September 30, 2004 ($1,808.6 million was reprogrammed to "security and law enforcement.")

The true total for such spending is higher, because the figures just quoted only cover the FY2004 program. Some $51.2 million was allocated to the Iraqi army in PL-108-11 April 2003. At the urging of the U.S. Embassy, an additional $1,808.6 million out of the FY2004 total funding for IIRP was reprogrammed to "security and law enforcement" in September 2004.

Unfortunately, the way in which the U.S. government has reported on aid expenditures in Iraq is so dysfunctional as to be almost totally misleading.\8\ For example, the Inspector General of the CPA reported on October 30, 2004 that, "As of March 2004, the U.S. had obligated about $58.5 billion to stabilize the security situation in Iraq: About $57.3 billion for the U.S. military operations and $1.2 billion for Iraqi security forces." These figures dramatize the slow pace of the U.S. effort to create effective Iraqi forces at the time, although they also reflect the disparity between a large Coalition force presence in Iraq and the initial buildup of Iraqi Security Forces, and the problems in trying to rapidly create effective Iraqi forces in a country with poor infrastructure, limited administrative capabilities, and in the midst of an insurgency.

The data the U.S. has made public on Iraqi force development since September have been cut to the point where they do no longer indicate whether the serious problems in equipment delays that existed as of early September are being corrected; all equipment delivery data have been deleted from the report.

The same is true of data on trained manpower. All breakouts have been eliminated from public U.S. reporting from the Embassy, Department of Defense, and Department of State. The only heading in the Weekly Status Report is now "Trained/On-Hand." This figure has some value, however, since it reflects the manpower that have been trained and are still on duty, to avoid the problem of reporting those who are trained and are not on duty for whatever reason.

Useful data have, however, been provided by the Coalition training command in Iraq, MNSTC-I, although such data cannot go into the detail needed to distinguish between the total number of men trained and equipped, and what are sometimes much smaller numbers of men with fully adequate training and equipment for counterinsurgency and combat missions, or show the rapidly increasing size of the cadres of fully trained officers and NCOs.

According to MNSTC-I, nine more active Army battalions should complete their training by the end of December, and all 27 Regular Army or Intervention Force battalions (including six more from the Intervention Force) are planned to complete training by the end of January. This schedule has been maintained despite attacks on training bases, infrastructure delays due to unexploded ordnance discovered at one planned base, and forces being deployed to major combat operations earlier than initially planned. Some battalions have had a number of AWOLs due to intimidation attacks, and MNSTC-I is working with the Iraqis to adjust its numbers to reflect those. MNSTC-I is also taking measures to reduce the likelihood and impact of these in the future, and to assist them in recruiting of combat veterans.

Two battalions from the Iraqi Intervention Force conducted operations in Najaf. These same two battalions plus another are conducting effective combat operations in Fallujah together with two regular battalions, an Army Commando Battalion, a Police Emergency Response Unit, and Shewani Special Forces trained by 1st MEF. These constituted 2,700 Iraqis at their peak. Although not all Army battalions were at full strength, soldiers who are in the battalions fought effectively and are certainly "combat ready," with most being "combat proven." The last six battalions from the Iraqi Intervention Force will complete initial training (fourteen weeks) in the next 30 days.

Sixteen National Guard battalions are conducting operations effectively at the company level or above, with a number conducting operations effectively at the battalion level. Many Iraqi National Guard (ING) units have conducted combat operations. Current plans are to expand the National Guard from its previous authorized strength of 45 battalions and six brigades to 6 Division HQs, 21 Brigade Commanders, and 65 battalions.

The number of trained police now include over 31,000 former police trained in the three-week Transition Integration Program. Over 15,000 police have been trained in the 8-week Academy program of instruction. Capacity at the 8-week academies in Jordan, Baghdad, and other regional academies should soon exceed over 3,000 graduates per month.

The numbers for trained border enforcement personnel reflect training done by major subordinate commands (divisions). Capabilities among border enforcement personnel vary widely. MNSTC-I has established a centralized program of instruction for border personnel, presently at the Jordanian Police Academy with Department of Homeland Security Instructors. Will move this instruction to Iraq in the near future.

While detailed data are lacking on the progress in training and equipment, the U.S. military team in MNSTC-I does provide useful data on the structure and type of training and equipment in key elements of the emerging Iraqi forces: \11\ Special Police Commando Battalions: The Special Police Commando Battalions represent the Iraqi Ministry of Interior's strike-force capability. The commandos -- ultimately to be comprised of six full battalions -- are highly vetted Iraqi officers and rank-and-file servicemen largely made up of prior service Special Forces professionals and other skilled servicemen with specialty unit experience. The Special Police Commando Battalions represent the Iraqi Ministry of Interior's strike-force capability. The commandos -- ultimately to be comprised of six full battalions -- are highly vetted Iraqi officers and rank-and-file servicemen largely made up of prior service Special Forces professionals and other skilled servicemen with specialty unit experience. All members of the unit are chosen based on loyalty to Iraq and its new democratic model. The unit focuses primarily on building raid operations, counter-terrorist missions including anti-airplane hijacker, kidnapping and other similar missions. The force resembles more a paramilitary army-type force complete with heavy weapons, rocket-propelled grenades, AK-47 assault rifles, mortars, and 9mm Glock pistols. The commando battalions give the MOI a high-end strike force capability similar to Special Forces units and was quickly stood up to capitalize on previously existing skill sets in Iraq. Iraqi Police Service Emergency Response Unit: An elite 270- man team trained to respond to national-level law enforcement emergencies. Team members undergo a robust eight-week specialized training course spawned from the current wave of anti-Iraqi forces actions. The mission of the emergency response unit is to provide a national, high-end, rapid-response law enforcement tactical unit responsible for high-risk search, arrest, hostage-rescue and crisis response operations. The emergency response unit is the predominant force for national-level incidents calling for a DELTA/SWAT capability and will only be used in extreme situations by local and national authorities. The $64.5 million effort is part of a larger mission to create a nation-level law enforcement investigative and special operations capability within the Iraqi Ministry of Interior to counter terrorism and large-scale civil disobedience and insurgencies throughout Iraq. The capability will eventually include a Counterterrorism Investigative Unit and Special Operations Unit. Volunteers for the force must first complete the standard eight-week basic training course or three-week transition integration program course for prior service officers before entering the specialized emergency response unit training modeled after the U.S. State Department's Anti- Terrorism Assistance and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms training programs. Of the total force, 235 eligible candidates received rigorous instruction based on the Anti-Terrorism Assistance Crisis Response Team training program while the balance of 35 recruits are part of the Special Operations Explosive Ordinance Team, based on the State Department's Anti-Terrorism Assistance Explosive Incident Countermeasures training course. Team members receive instruction on terrorist incidents, kidnappings, hostage negotiations, explosive ordnance, high- risk searches, high-risk assets, weapons of mass destruction, and other national-level law enforcement emergencies. Officers also have an opportunity to receive supplementary training in hostage negotiation, emergency medical procedures, and counterterrorism task force coordination. Iraqi Intervention Forces: The Iraqi Intervention Force is the counter-insurgency wing of the Iraqi army. Ultimately to be comprised of nine battalions, organized into three brigades, forces negotiate the standard eight-week basic training all Iraqi soldiers go through learning basic soldiering skills such as weapons, drill and ceremony, Soldier discipline, and physical training skills. After graduation, IIF battalions spend several weeks and months in intensive "military operations in urban terrain" follow-on training -- otherwise know as "MOUT" training. In this period, soldiers work through instruction in the art of street fighting and building clearing operations typical to anti-insurgent operations in cities and towns. Units work in close coordination with other IA battalions and will be completely stood-up to the nine-battalion force by early 2005. Iraqi Special Operations Force: The Iraqi Special Operations Force -- the Iraqi Armed Forces -- high-end strike force resembling U.S. Special Forces units -- continues training and operations in the country with multinational force assistance. The Iraqi Special Operations Force -- the Iraqi Armed Forces' high-end strike force resembling U.S. Special Forces units -- continues training and operations in the country with multinational force assistance. Consisting of two trained battalions, including the 36th Commando Battalion -- an infantry-type strike force -- and the Iraqi Counterterrorism Battalion, the force has been involved in many operations throughout the country fighting anti-Iraqi forces with great distinction while continuing the stand-up effort of the unit. The force will add a third "support" battalion to its ranks in the coming months. Training is conducted at an undisclosed location. "Selection" for the force begins in the Iraqi National Guard and Iraqi army units already operating in the country, much like typical multinational Special Forces' recruiting efforts in their own countries. Outstanding recruits successfully negotiating the vetting process, including exhaustive background checks, skill evaluations, and unit evaluations along with literacy, psychological, and physical tests, are run through various team-building and physical events meant to lean down the recruit pool. The selection process runs roughly 10 to 14 days. The Iraqi Special Forces undergo intense physical, land navigation, small-unit tactics, live-fire, unconventional warfare operations, direct action operations, airmobile operations, counterterrorism, survival, evasion, resistance, and escape training. Special Forces soldiers are an army's unconventional warfare experts, possessing a broad range of operational skills. The unit was formed based on a conversation between the Prime Minister Ayad Allawi and multinational force personnel to give the Iraqi Armed Forces a high-end strike force in its ongoing security mission against anti-Iraqi forces operating in the country. Iraqi Army: Iraqi army soldiers negotiate standard eight- weeks of basic training including basic soldiering skills instruction in weapons, drill and ceremony, Soldier discipline, and physical training. Iraqi army soldiers negotiate standard eight-weeks of basic training including basic soldiering skills instruction in weapons, drill and ceremony, Soldier discipline, and physical training. Units negotiate advanced follow-on infantry, land navigation, and other operational training after graduation before deployment. The Iraqi army will ultimately be comprised of 27 battalions of infantry -- including nine special Iraqi Intervention Force battalions -- and three transportation battalions. The army will be organized into nine brigades and three divisions. The bulk of the force is slated to be in place by early 2005. Plans to create heavier and better armored forces are still in flux, but there are now 259 soldiers in the 1st Mechanized Brigade, preparing to train with 10 MTLB armored personnel carriers. These vehicles were drawn from a pool of over 300 armored vehicles that the Iraqis intend to make ready as the unit grows. The brigade has 50 T-55 tanks, 48 BMP-1s, 57 MTLBs, 36 Spartans, and 30 BTR-94s already. MNSTC-I hopes to have a combat ready armored battalion by the end of January and the time of election, with others to follow. Iraqi Coastal Defense Force: The Iraqi Coastal Defense Force is the Iraqi Armed Forces' naval component. Ultimately to number just more than 400 servicemen, the force also includes a land-based Coastal Defense Regiment resembling western-type "Marine" infantry forces. Land and sea based forces negotiate IAF eight-week basic training courses before moving on to follow-on training and sea training for the boat crews. Boat crews learn the basics in seamanship before moving on to instruction in advanced seamanship, towing, gunnery, sea rescue, chart reading, navigation, anti-smuggling, operations, and rigid inflatable boat integration and small boat drill instruction. Training is put in the context of a democratically based maritime sea force. Primary duties include protecting the country's roughly 50- mile coastline from smuggling and foreign fighter infiltration operations as well as the port assets at Umm Qasr in Southern Iraq and oil assets in the Persian Gulf. The force patrols out to the 12-mile international water boundary in the Persian Gulf with five 27-meter long Chinese-made patrol boats and various other support craft.

These numbers and force descriptions show that the Iraqi military and security forces are now far too weak to take over the security mission and will almost certainly remain so well into 2005. They also indicate that the U.S. may be moving too slowly in creating military forces that can deal with the insurgency problem by 2006. While the U.S. is seeking to help Iraq build a three division force, it seems clear that it is not yet committed to creating the kind of national military forces that can defend the country and give the government legitimacy and respect.

In practice, the U.S. can only succeed in "playing the course" of the program for training and equipping Iraqi military and security forces meets the following key short-term and longer-term objectives: Create effective police and security forces capable of operating on a nation-wide basis. Create a suitable mix of military and specially trained and equipped security forces that can help defeat the insurgencies in Iraq and come to maintain security without Coalition assistance. Create the structure and cadres that will allow an Iraqi government to expand the Iraqi military to the point where it is capable of defending the nation and with the size, professionalism, and equipment to act as an effective, modern military force for national defense. This latter objective means creating a longer term U.S. aid and advisory plan that will give Iraq the modern, professional military forces it needs for defense and deterrence without risking a return to either a political role for the armed forces or the kind of military buildup that could lead to an arms race and a destabilization of the region.

More broadly, U.S. needs to carefully reexamine the level of effort it is making in each area. There are serious tradeoffs in force quality if the training, force building, and equipment effort is rushed. The end result could be a failed force. Yet, the U.S. can only "play the course" effectively if it works out goals and plans with the Iraqi Interim Government that go far beyond the 28,000 man armed forces -- and the roughly 40-55,000 man total of military, paramilitary, and National Guard -- the U.S. currently says are "required." This may well mean scaling up a much larger training and equipment program over time than the U.S. currently plans.

Finally, the U.S. needs to communicate a clear plan for achieving all three of the previous objectives to the Iraqi people and the region. Once again, it needs honest and transparent reporting that is detailed enough to be convincing, while pushing Iraqis towards responsibility and accountability.

It needs to show that it is truly dedicated to creating legitimate forces for a legitimate government, and creating the conditions necessary for a phased U.S. withdrawal. It needs to go back to reporting systems that are detailed and transparent enough to show the progress it is making, and minimize the impact of the various conspiracy theories rampant throughout the country.

The U.S. also needs to keep seeking as much allied and outside support in the training effort as possible. The U.S. will not get significant numbers of additional combat troops. In fact, it will be almost impossible for its current allies to maintain their present troop strength unless it articulates a clear strategy for both improving the legitimacy of the Iraqi government and phasing out Coalition troops. It is one of the many strategic ironies in Iraq that any serious increase in foreign troops requires a level of internal security in Iraq that makes them largely unnecessary.

At the same time, an NATO or other country that plays a role in the training process not only aids a critical mission; it also adds a degree of transparency and legitimacy to the military effort. Their presence and activity will make it clear that the U.S. is creating real Iraqi capabilities, and does intend to leave.

The U.S. State Department announced on November 19, 2004, that NATO's decision to send military trainers to Iraq was the first collective, consensus decision the alliance had made on Iraq in two years, and would substantially increase the number of military trainers in the country from around 65 to as many as 400. Not clear, however, exactly when such manpower will arrive and it will require an additional 1,000 to 1,200 personnel to support the trainers by providing force protection, logistics, and communications -- creating a mission total of between 1,500 and 1,700 people, some of which will be drawn from the United States. Most of the new military personnel were scheduled to be in place within 5 to 6 weeks, and the U.S. military personnel contributions will come from outside Iraq.\12\

The U.S. has already learned that it can win virtually any direct military battle or clash, but it cannot secure the country. Moreover, U.S. and Coalition forces are so unpopular that their presence can create added hostility and new insurgents. This is one key reason for creating effective Iraqi military and security forces. Winning the military action is only part of the story. As in Vietnam, if the interim Iraqi government cannot win the political battle, U.S. victories in the military battles become irrelevant.

The very professionalism of the U.S. military often makes it reluctant to give allied forces major responsibility or a lead role. There are also very tangible limits to how quickly Iraqi forces can be trained, equipped, and gain enough experience to be fully interoperable and take over from U.S. forces.

The key to political and military success will, however, be to create a pattern of operations where Iraqi forces are as visible as possible, become truly interoperable, and take over as many security and military missions as possible. This involves more than the training and aid effort that has just been discussed. It requires detailed, ongoing U.S. efforts to transform operations into joint U.S.-Iraqi and then Iraqi operations as quickly as this can be done with the proper level of effectiveness.

The political and economic battle is very different from the military one. It will be fought over several months, not days or weeks. It will extend far beyond the bounds of cities like Fallujah. Barring a revival of the kind of Shi'ite insurgency led by Al Sadr, it will be a struggle to give the Iraqi Interim Government enough control over the Sunni Arab-driven aspects of the insurgency in Iraq to achieve the following seven objectives: Defeat insurgents without alienating the Sunnis to the point where political compromise is impossible: A battle conducted in a political context in which a coalition and interim government victory does not become a convincing image of martyrdom in Iraqi Sunni and Arab eyes. Civilian casualties and collateral damage should not create convincing images of another Jenin in the Palestinian West Bank or the massive use of excessive force. Establish sufficient security and control to deny Sunni insurgents and terrorists any major sanctuary and "no-go" areas in Fallujah, Anbar province, and Iraq generally. Not only defeat the insurgents who stay in Fallujah, but prevent their dispersal or their going under cover to the extent that they cannot control any major populated area, during daylight and at night. Ensure that Iraqi military and security forces demonstrate enough credibility so that they play a major role in the battle, can be the most visible security presence in the area after major fighting is over, and can erase the impression of failure left by Iraqi forces in April. Further, they should provide a credible picture to the Iraqi people, the region, and the world that government forces can -- in time -- take over a fully sovereign role from U.S.-led coalition forces and lead to the coalition's withdrawal. Establish sufficient security in every high threat area so that Iraqi security forces and administrators can function in Fallujah and key cities and towns in Anbar province. Establish sufficient Iraqi Interim Government political control over Fallujah, Anbar, and the "Sunni triangle" to give the government a major boost in legitimacy and make polling and elections possible in the area. Give the Sunnis incentives to join the political and electoral process. A significant number of Arab Sunnis must be persuaded to participate in the political process and January's election to avoid creating a Shiite- and Arab-Kurdish-dominated Iraq. The Sunnis controlled Iraq during Saddam Hussein's rule. Create conditions where there is immediate aid and compensation and longer-term economic hope. The military effort must be accompanied by U.S. and Iraqi Interim Government efforts to institute an effective public-assistance and economic development process that offers jobs, hope and incentives to join the interim government as a functioning and tolerated entity. This struggle may not be as difficult as it seems, but its course highly uncertain. The good news is that there is no rigid separation between Arab Sunni and Arab Shi'ite, and the estimates saying that Arab Sunnis are 20% of the populations and Arab Shi'ites are 60% are decades old and are not based on a census. Many Sunnis intermarry and live with Shi'ites, and most past clashes were the result of attacks by the Ba'ath regime and not the result of popular tensions. Sunni insurgent numbers still seem relatively small, perhaps some 12,000-16,000 full time actives plus perhaps twice to three times that number acting as a pool of part time insurgents or "instant" volunteers. This is scarcely an insignificant number, but is a small fraction of the more than five million Arab Sunnis in Iraq.

The bad news is that the U.S. military victory in Fallujah probably only affected 10-20% of the full time Sunni insurgents in Iraq, and many seem to have escaped. Other Sunni insurgents attacked throughout Iraq during the fighting, and had considerable success in starting an uprising in Mosul. The decision to attack Fallujah was opposed by Iraq's Sunni president, its leading group of Sunni clerics, and a number of other Iraqi politicians. Sunni Arab media coverage was almost universally hostile both inside and outside Iraq, and these negative images were compounded by TV coverage that appeared to show a U.S. Marine killing a defenseless, wounded prisoner and then a devastated and deserted city.

Fallujah illustrates the fact that U.S.-led military victories -- regardless of how convincing in military terms -- can only be the prelude to an ongoing Iraqi-led political and economic struggle mixed with ongoing efforts to establish security in every part of Iraq. Iraqis, not Americans, will have to shape the most critical part of their destiny. U.S. forces can only give them the opportunity to succeed. Consequently, the Iraqi Interim Government's performance in achieving all of the above political and economic objectives during the course of 2004-2006 will be the key litmus test of whether the military actions in the war have meaning and offer Iraqis and the Americans hope of lasting success.

No one in the United States, the Coalition, and Interim Government can afford to forget this for a moment in the heat of the fighting. This is particularly true because the interim government failed to perform effectively in establishing governance, establishing aid, and providing security after the U.S. victory in Samarra, and after the fighting in Najaf and Sadr City. If the interim government does not do better in Fallujah, Anbar province, and Iraq as a whole, the insurgents will recover and return, the Sunni Arabs will reject the interim government and political process, and the political process will be seriously discredited.

Put differently, it is critical to give the Iraqi Interim Government help in "stability operations" and nation building after each battle, and give it as much of a lead and visibility as possible in both the fighting and its aftermath. It is not the U.S. that has to win in terms of Iraqi and regional perceptions, it is the interim government.

This "Iraqi first" aspect of successful military operations means highlighting Iraqi military and security operations, not U.S. operations, and steadily expanding the military security role of Iraqis over time. It means pushing the government into more successful civil- military operations and downplaying the U.S. role. It means giving U.S. commanders large discretionary (CERP-type) aid funds to both ease the backlash civilian casualties and collateral damage cause to the U.S., and to back up Iraqi government civic action programs and cover for any failures. It also means educating U.S. forces to be extremely sensitive about the need to build up the interim government's credibility and to defer to it in ways that reinforce its legitimacy.

The political and economic battle also requires the U.S. to make every effort to help the Iraqi Interim Government maintain the support of the Arab Shi'ite majority, and of the Kurds and other minorities. This balancing act is now largely Iraqi, but the U.S. does retain significant influence, and can allocate and reprogram economic aid to this end.

"Playing the course" also means supporting the interim government in its efforts to pressure Sadr to join the political process and avoiding new clashes driven by his militia. Here again, giving Iraqi leaders and forces maximum visibility in decision-making and any future fighting is critical. The most efficient way may be the U.S. military way; the way to achieve political victory (and minimize any backlash against the U.S.) will be the Iraqi way.

The U.S. must never forget that losing the Iraqi Shi'ites means losing the war in terms of any ability to create a representative government of the kind the U.S. is seeking to create. Like civil war or being asked to leave by an elected Iraqi government, it is a key indication the U.S. must leave. This, however, means accepting that a Shi'ite majority may well emerge with values and goals from those of the U.S.

It also means exercising care in dealing with Iran. The U.S. cannot shape its Iran policy around the risk that Iran may challenge the U.S. and interim government far more directly than it has to date; it scarcely, however, can ignore this risk.

The U.S. should make it unambiguously clear to the Kurds that it will support them and the protection of their legitimate rights as long as they remain part of the Iraqi political process, and will not support them at all in any effort at separatism or ethic cleaning in dealing with Iraqi Arabs and other minorities like the Turcomans.

So far, the Kurds have shown they understand the political realities involved, although they naturally push their cause to the margin. The U.S. must do nothing to change this perception. It must also make it clear to the Kurds that if things go wrong in Iraq, it will not support or protect them as it did with Saddam, either against their fellow Iraqis or from pressure and threats from Iran, Syria, and Turkey. The U.S. has no future strategic interest in the Kurds, and no humanitarian obligation to protect them from the consequences of their own mistakes.

U.S. troops in Iraq face a serious and dangerous mix of insurgency and terrorism. The U.S. can subordinate military effective and force protection to civil and political concerns. At the same time, it seems clear that some elements of the insurgency will continue indefinitely into the future, and that the U.S. cannot delay many civic action and aid activities until something approaching local security is established.

The U.S. military has already established that it understands the need to use dollars as well as bullets. It has used the Commander's Emerging Relief Program (CERP) with considerable effectiveness, and has since used the reprogramming of aid funds in similar ways. As of October 2, 2004, the U.S. had dispersed $578.3 million in CERP funds. Some $150.4 million had gone to police and security services and the facilities protection service, but the rest had gone to civic action. Another $383.8 million was approved for a somewhat similar time-urgent program called the Accelerated Iraq Reconstruction Program (AIRP) in April 2004.\13\

What is less clear is how good the partnership is between the U.S. military and the U.S. aid effort in governance and economic programs, and whether the U.S. Embassy and U.S. command have been able to establish the necessary level of civil-military jointness in making it possible to carry out such programs. The poor civil-military relations between the CPA and previous military command left what at best was a poisoned chalice.

As will be discussed shortly, one of the keys to success in economic aid and stability, will be to terminate the U.S. contractor effort as immediately and fully as possible, and to shift aid planning and execution to the Iraqi government and Iraqi contractors. Such an effort, however, requires careful U.S. review in the field and often hands-on advice and support by U.S. officials and direct, accountable employees of the U.S. government. It also requires removing non-Iraqi security personnel as quickly as possible. This will make civil- military jointness even more critical than in the past.

It also raises an issue that may be too late to address in Iraq, but that may be critical in the future. The separation of U.S. civilian authority and operational military commands makes good practical sense during conventional warfighting. It is far less clear that it should happen in stability, peacemaking, and nation building operations.

Many of the pointless civil-military tensions, and much of the lack of effective civil-military coordination, during ORHA and the time of the CPA were the result of a divided presence coupled to divided responsibility. The need for truly integrated civil-military operations (including integrated effort in developing local military, security, and police forces) is simply too great to permit this to happen in the future, and such integration should occur in Iraq as quickly as possible.

The U.S. economic aid program in Iraq has had many individual success and accomplishment, and U.S. AID and contractor personnel have accomplished a great deal in individual areas in spite of immense difficulties and the dangers in the field. As an overall effort, however, U.S. economic aid has lagged far behind the need for urgent action; has wasted vast resources on an impractical contracting effort; and reflects U.S. views and priorities. As a result, it is decoupled from the needs of Iraq, the political and military realities and pressures in the country, and the need to transition responsibility and action to the Iraqi government as soon as possible.

The situation is made worse by an almost completely dysfunctional reporting system within the U.S. government that does not tie plans and accomplishments to realistic requirements, and that reports different kinds of aid in separate reports using different categories. It has been compounded by the CPA's inability to put its ideas about economic reform into action while sustaining economic distortions like the massive subsidies provided under Saddam Hussein. It was further compounded by a focus on longer-term plans and expenditures in a country where the U.S. faced serious security problems and needed to act decisively and to begin achieving far more visible results over a year ago.

Any estimate of either Iraq's near-term or overall needs for aid can only be a crude guesstimate. Figures like $50-$100 billion have been quoted for "medium term relief and reconstruction," but they are not based on either reliable input data or credible models. The present problem, however, is not one of resources. There are enough funds to "play the course."

As of early November, the U.S. had only disbursed $3,255 million of $18,060 in FY2004 IRRF aid. Disbursements were also running at well under $50 million a week. It is disturbing that a total of $14,891 million of this total is said to be committed, and $10,437 is said to be obligated. This kind of "progress" may well be wasted on delayed and unneeded efforts, or vast amounts of overhead and security expenditures. At the same time, the Inspector General for the CPA has reported that a total of some $55.1 billion had been provided or pledged for Iraqi relief and reconstruction. As of September 30, 2004 this included: \14\ $24.1 billion in U.S. appropriated funds, used primarily for reconstruction. These funds come from three public laws: (a) PL108-287 provides a total of $300 million in CERP funds under PL108-287 ($100 million allocated to Iraq). PL108-11 (April 2003) provides $2,475 million in IRRF funds, $802 million in

million in CPA OPS/IG, $106 million in IRMO, and $140 million in CERP. $28.2 billion in Iraqi funds, used primarily for ongoing operating expenditures, but also for reconstruction and relief: $1,724 million in vested funds from frozen funds; $927 million in seized funds and confiscated cash and property, and $25,782 million in the Development fund for Iraq, financed by oil revenues, repatriated funds, and money in the oil for food account. Some $2.8 billion in donor funds: $849 million in humanitarian relief, $435 million in IMF EPCA funds, and $1,355 billion in actual deposits for the $13,589 million pledged at the Madrid International Donors Conference for Iraq Reconstruction. Iraq will almost certainly need more aid over the next few years, as well as debt relief and forgiveness of reparations from the Gulf War. The immediate task, however, is to put an aid program in place as soon as possible that helps establish security, meets the urgent needs of the people, and moves money to Iraqi projects run by Iraqis.

The U.S. Embassy has already successfully sought reprogramming of $3,460.1 million aid funds to meet urgent security needs. President Bush approved this transfer on September 30, 2004. It cut $1,074.6 million out of electricity projects and $1,935.6 million in water projects that could not be executed in a timely way and which faced many security problems. It added $1,809.6 million to security and law enforcement, $460.5 million to justice and public safety, $660 million to private sector employment development, and $80.00 million to governance. The U.S. has stepped up emergency aid expenditures to deal with contingencies like Fallujah. There also is a base of valid aid projects underway that should be successfully pursued.

Nevertheless, there seems ample reason for the U.S. to act immediately to "zero base" the current economic aid effort to achieve the following objectives: Ensure adequate financing for short term CERP/AIRP projects to allow intensive U.S. operations in CY2005 and CY2006, and make military and political stability efforts the key priority. The priority is to make things work in Iraq in the middle of drastic political change, insurgency, and economic crisis. Mid- and long-term efforts will have priority when -- and if -- there is a longer term. Focus on unemployment and immediate social needs. The latest weekly report on aid related jobs shows a loss from 68,000 jobs to 61,000. This trend, however, is irrelevant. The Iraqi labor force totals at least 7.8 million. More than 11 million Iraqis are young dependents between 0 and 14 years of age (more than 40% of the population). The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that there are 4.2 million Iraqis in the critical employment age between 20 and 24, and more than 2.2 million are male. There are no accurate employment statistics, but real and disguised unemployment is probably around 30-40%, and may be 40-60% among young males. Stability at the local level is the issue. Classic infrastructure and institutional development must wait. Put the Iraqis in charge of planning, project development, and project management for mid- and long-term projects. The U.S. has not shown any special competence in formulating and executing such projects. If anything, trying to do things the U.S. way, with a heavy emphasis on large, long-term infrastructure projects and construction efforts has helped convince a large part of the Iraqi people that the U.S. is not even trying to help them. There will be a continuing need for the U.S. to review projects, take steps to limit corruption, and ensure proper completion. The Iraqi government, however, must be given as much authority as soon as possible, and the Iraqi people must see that it is in charge. Encourage short-term and mid-term solutions with clear local benefits in troubled and high risk areas. The need to do this should be obvious but the current aid plan still tends to emphasize mid- to long-term construction. Over $8 billion out of the $18.4 billion in FY2004 IRRF funds, and puts $5.248 billion into water and electricity projects that are time consuming and vulnerable.\15\ These efforts may well be needed in time; but local needs should be met right now and even if this means patchwork efforts that are not cost-effective. Minimize the role of USAID in Washington. Iraq is not a traditional "client" for aid, and the USAID contracting process is a slow moving nightmare oriented towards U.S. formulated and executed projects. USAID personnel have often done well in the field, but direction should come out of the U.S. Embassy and aid flows should be programmed to go directly to the Iraqi government and contractors. Minimize or eliminate the use of U.S. or non-Iraqi contractors. Reliance on large U.S. contractors may have made some kind of sense at the start. At this point, their overheads and security costs, and the non-performance of many foreign subcontractors, is a major problem. It compounds the Iraqi impression that the U.S. aid effort is not serious and does not help Iraqis. It adds major delays and creates far more security risks than letting Iraqis do the job. This effort is not about "buy American" and meeting accounting and contracting standards. It is about nation building and achieving a strategic result. Multilateralize the aid process to minimize direct U.S. responsibility and allow the U.S. to use joint pressure on the Iraqis to perform. The U.S. should seek to create international groups to handle key aspects of the aid effort. This is necessary both to make it clear that the U.S. is not attempting to dictate and that it is no longer responsible for Iraqi actions. It is also a key way to seek further aid from other countries. Make the aid and economic development process transparent. No one can talk to Iraqis and not be aware of the fact that their expectations are grossly exaggerated and they are badly informed about both what must be done and what is being done. Part of the problem is that they simply do not know the scale of the challenges involved. Part is the contrast between the constant lists of "accomplishments" being claimed by the U.S. and the realities they live with. The U.S. needs to provide far more honest reporting on the scale of the problems Iraq has inherited from Saddam's regime, how much must be done to correct them, the realities of what the U.S. aid program is actually accomplishing, and how such accomplishments relate to real world needs and goals. Make a major point of multilateralizing development aid for the petroleum sector. It is still far from clear how much Iraq's oil fields have suffered from mismanagement and the years of underfunding that began early in the Iran-Iraq War. The present oil ministry goal of 2.5 MMBD may or may not be suitable given current reservoir problems. The recent weekly average of 2.39 MMBD certainly does not meet this goal, or compare with estimates of 2.8-3.0 MMBD in prewar capacity.\16\ Average oil exports have been ranging from 1.1 to 1.8 MMBD in 2004, generally on the lower side. High oil prices and export revenues per barrel have allowed Iraq to earn $14.6 billion in oil revenues in 2004, as of November 2004, but it seems unlikely that Iraq will earn the $18 billion it earned in 2002, much less the $22 billion in near term annual earnings the U.S. projected at the time the war began. Moreover, as of November 2004, the U.S. had actually dispersed only $56 million of $1,701 million in IRRF aid for oil infrastructure.\17\ There is no single area more critical to the Iraqi economy, to giving the Iraqi government the resources it needs, and to refuting charges that the U.S. and Britain are seeking to grab Iraqi oil than helping the Oil Ministry create an effective plan to repair and develop Iraq's oil resources in a way that is multilateral and transparent enough to make it clear to Iraqis and the world that the U.S. truly wants to help and not to profiteer. Push debt and reparations forgiveness to the limit: The last thing Iraq needs is a burden similar to one place on the Weimar Republic. A stable and secure Iraq cannot emerge with massive foreign obligations and debts. Nations in general find it easier to foreign such obligations than to provide real aid money, and a major U.S. effort to open pressure all of Iraqi debtors and reparations holders is a good way to externalize the aid effort and counter nations that are willing to be critics, but not to help. The Paris Club agreement on November 21st to reduce some $31 billion of $38.9 billion in Iraq's debt in three stages is an 80% reduction that does not meet the goal of a 95% reduction set by the U.S., but is an important step forward, particularly if it can be extended to all debtors and remain linked to pressure on Iraq for effective economic reform.\18\ It does, however, leave Iraq with combination of reparations and remaining debt that may exceed $120 billion. This is one of the few political weapons the U.S. has in dealing with outside powers and it should use it to the maximum extent possible.\19\

In addition to these immediate priorities, the U.S. needs to take a similar approach to encouraging the Iraqi government to carry out multilateral and study plans that will allow it to act when (and if) security and stability are established, and Iraq's longer term needs can really be established. Infrastructure planning: Roads, electricity, water, and sewers: The U.S. has placed far too heavy an emphasis on infrastructure recovery without having clear Iraqi plans and priorities, and Iraqi decisions designed to correct the massive imbalances and inadequacies Saddam's regime created in the services and facilities provided to given groups. This is an area where Iraq needs to make hard decisions and choose its own path, not have the path chosen for it. The financial sector: The U.S. made some good beginnings in this area, but Iraqis now see many of its efforts to open up the financial sector in conspiracy theory terms. The U.S. needs to shift as much of the burden in this sector to the World Bank and IMF as possible, and ideally, to work with Iraq to find some European or Asian nation to take the lead. State industries: Iraq's state industries are a major economic millstone around the neck of its development efforts. They are also a political nightmare. The U.S. should encourage reform, but distance itself from direct involvement. Let Iraqis, the IMF/World Bank, and other nations take the lead. Subsidies: As above. The U.S. has already done enough damage by failing to come to grips with the problem immediately after the war, when something might have be done with far more ease. The agricultural sector: Some progress has already been made here. Creating an efficient and competitive sector, however, again involves political issues that the U.S. should be careful to give the Iraqi government the lead in. Aid efforts should be as multilateral as possible. Education: The issue is not facilities; it is quality and relevance in term of job creation. Unlike some countries in the region, Iraqis see this on their own. The U.S. role should be to encourage them to plan and act, and provide aid. It can be largely passive. Austerity and Financial Discipline: Iraq needs job creation, sustainment, and stability first. The U.S. should help it resist any types of rapid economic reform that will be internally destabilizing. Landings need to be as soft as possible. Plans for U.S. withdrawal and phasing down the U.S. aid effort should not mean abandoning Iraq. They should instead mean mid- and long-term aid plans that can actually be implemented on terms the Iraqis want, can execute, and can sustain. The U.S. also needs to be careful to multilateralize such efforts as much as possible to give them international legitimacy, avoid taking responsibilities that belong with the Iraq government, and demonstrate the legitimacy of its actions. "know when to fold and know when to run:" when and how to get out

While any form of conspicuous U.S. failure in Iraq will be serious defeat, such a defeat is still all too thinkable and all too possible. This is why every section of this analysis has not only addressed what can be done to create some acceptable form of "victory," but the need to transfer responsibility to Iraqis, and to create the kinds of transparency that will minimize the political backlash and blame the U.S. will face if it must withdraw.

As has been stated in the introduction, the key to any feasible form of "victory" is to plan to "fold" just as rapidly as the Iraqi government can take over the political and security burdens, and has some basis for dealing with the economic crisis. The only way to win the game in Iraq is to stop playing it as soon as the Iraqis are ready to take over. Ideally, this should occur no later than the end of 2006, and take place earlier if Iraqi governance, legitimacy, and security can be established during 2005.

At the same time, the U.S. does not need the kind of exit strategy that means deliberately planning for failure. It also does not need to set deadlines for withdrawal that may well make failure a self- fulfilling prophecy. The odds may not be good, but they are scarcely unacceptable and it may well be possible to improve them substantially during 2005 -- if the U.S. acts promptly and decisively.

It cannot be emphasized too strongly that the U.S. should not set deadlines for a U.S. troop presence, or ceilings on U.S. aid. These are a dangerous signal to the insurgents, who will see such deadlines as a reason to keep fighting and as a key sign of American weakness and lack of resolve. They will make it even more difficult to attract and keep coalition and international support. They also are far more likely to make Iraqis think about protecting themselves, and make them avoid the risks of supporting the interim government and nation building process. Morality and ethic also play a role, not just expediency. This is a war the U.S. started, and a peace process that it initially bungled. Quite aside from power politics and strategy, it has a moral and ethical responsibility to the Iraqi people.

Yet, the U.S. and its allies do need to think and plan for the "unthinkable." They need contingency plans to deal with different kinds of failure, and they must plan for the possibility that Iraqis may either demand an exit or the situation may become untenable in spite of U.S. and allied efforts. No one can guarantee success in Iraq; or that Iraq will not descend into civil war, come under a strongman, or split along ethnic or confessional lines. The U.S. must be ready if the Iraqis fail to move forward and reach a necessary political consensus, divide or move towards civil war, or ask the U.S. and its coalition allies to leave.

It is silly and dangerous to deny the possibility this can happen, or to claim the U.S. can never withdraw. If anything, this encourages precisely the kind of Iraqi government dependence on the U.S. that will make things worse for both Iraq and America. The U.S. should make it clear the length and nature of its effort in Iraq is conditional. It should make it clear that the Iraqi government has goals it must meet, that it must take the creation of Iraqi military and security forces seriously, and must focus on economic, power sharing, and other key realities and succeed.
