Hi Dave

I don't even know where to begin, so over to you ...


The Thomas P.M. Barnett Web Files at the U.S. Naval War College

THE PENTAGON'S NEW MAP
IT EXPLAINS WHY WE'RE GOING TO WAR,
AND WHY WE'LL KEEP GOING TO WAR.
BY
THOMAS P.M. BARNETT, U.S. NAVAL WAR COLLEGE
Esquire, March 2003 issue

Since the end of the cold war, the United States has been trying to come
up with an operating theory of the world--and a military strategy to
accompany it.  Now there's a leading contender.  It involves identifying
the problem parts of the world and aggressively shrinking them.  Since
September 11, 2001, the author, a professor of warfare analysis, has
been advising the Office of the Secretary of Defense and giving this
briefing continually at the Pentagon and in the intelligence community.
  Now he gives it to you.

LET ME TELL YOU why military engagement with Saddam Hussein's regime in
Baghdad is not only necessary and inevitable, but good.
