I agree, both Iraq and Afghanistan. That's why I think people like Michael Yon's perspective, is going to be an important reference when they are sorting out the pieces of the puzzle.

The NY times is equally responsible for the promotion of Bush administration propaganda. Employing war cheerleaders like Judith Miller and sitting on information regarding illegal spying programs for over a year proves beyond any doubt that the media has traded ethics and journalism for access and corporate profits. I hope that these current/past Pentagon officials will be forced to use their consultant fees to pay their legal bills when they are prosecuted for disseminating propaganda in violation of US law.

I don't think they have much to worry about.
