Iraq Combat Postmortem

On NRO today, Victor Davis Hanson has another great essay in which he surveys the motivations for and controversies allegedly stemming from that action. Excerpt:

The United States has lost less than 350 American dead in actual combat in Iraq, deposed the worst tyrant on the planet, and offered the first real hope of a humane government in the recent history of the Middle East — and is being roundly condemned rather than praised for one of the most remarkable occurrences of our age. Yet a careful postbellum anatomy of the recent WMD controversy makes the original case for the war stronger rather weaker.
