Read this article.

It's long, it's not very rosy, it's the first plan I've read that makes sense to me.

On the other hand, see how the NY Times compares Iraqization by Bush to Vietnamization by Nixon, which is where I got the Krepinevich reference.

'Course it makes me sick we went in in the first place.
