Squandered Victory: The American Occupation and the Bungled Effort to Bring Democracy to Iraq -- The guest speaker is Larry Diamond, Senior Fellow, The Hoover Institution; Professor, Political Science and Sociology, Stanford University; Founding Co-Editor, Journal of Democracy; and former Senior Adviser to the Coalition Provisional Authority, Baghdad, Iraq (2004) In Squandered Victory, Dr. Diamond shows how the American effort to establish democracy in Iraq was hampered not only by insurgents and terrorists but also by a long chain of miscalculations, missed opportunities, and acts of ideological blindness that helped assure that the transition to independence would be neither peaceful nor entirely democratic. (Repeats tomorrow 2am, and Saturday at 4am)

Smart guy, he knows his stuff and speaks the truth.
