'Any future expedient rehabilitation of the Syrian terrorists seems analogous to the disingenuous glow up granted the Ukrainian neo-Nazi militias and risks having the same result, no doubt.' Always grateful to have Peter Van Buren writing for us. responsiblestatecraft.org/syria-what-hap…

As with Iraq being left open for anyone who wanted a piece of it, Syria is going to dissolve. Israel already grabbed snippets of territory this week and Turkey wants to finish off the SDF Kurds (backed by the US) inside the country. MORE Peter Van Buren : responsiblestatecraft.org/syria-what-hap…

I finished "We Meant Well: How I Helped Lose the Battle for the Hearts and Minds of the Iraqi People" by Peter Van Buren, a book a friend gave me that languished on myself for about a decade. It is very good and darkly comical throughout. 1/13

"My view of USAID in Iraq was not comprehensive, but confirming. I saw nothing that wasn’t a gross caricature of our foreign policy. The absurdities of 2015 and the goofy woke programs of 2025 are cousins." Peter Van Buren on his own experience with USAID theamericanconservative.com/the-usaid-i-kn…

"What should not be done is to eliminate H1-B visas. The program as it stands today is necessary but not sufficient, and ripe for overhaul as part of the greater scrutiny Trump is applying to all immigration to the United States."
