lots of chatter over a brent scowcroft related piece in the new yorker yesterday but i see today that they havent put it up for our delectation. if im not mistaken, the new yorker was predominantly liberally hawkish in the run up to war. in fact, i believe the guy who wrote the scowcroft piece was one of its biggest cheerleaders. so, thanks for nothing, then and now, unless you find this q&a with the author satisfactory.

Genius! Author writes bogus story about Iraq-al Qaeda link that gives Administration cause to go to war. War goes badly, creating intense interest in author's article about war critic!
