Beginning Re-Baathification in Iraq

November 25, 2007

We all know that the early mismanagement of the American occupation in Iraq hinged on three key mistakes:

  1. Purging the government of all Baath party loyalists.
  2. Disbanding the Iraqi military.
  3. Allowing large-scale looting in the streets.

Now it appears that the Bush administration has made re-integrating Baath loyalists into the Iraqi government. Is it too little too late?

I think so.
