“There has been a good deal of comment — some of it quite outlandish — about what our postwar requirements might be in Iraq. Some of the higher end predictions we have been hearing recently, such as the notion that it will take several hundred thousand U.S. troops to provide stability in post- Iraq, are wildly off the mark. It is hard to conceive that it would take more forces to provide stability in post-Saddam Iraq than it would take to conduct the war itself and to secure the surrender of Saddam's security forces and his army — hard to imagine.” Has BeensWarEndsHardMightForceDealsImagineSecurityHigherThousandHundredMarkArmyNotionIraqHearingSurrenderSecurePostsCommentStabilityTroopsRequirementsPredictionsSaddamOutlandishSecurity Forces Author:Paul Wolfowitz
“It is often hard to secure unanimity about the borders of legislative power, but that is much easier than to decide how far a particular adjustment diverges from what the judges deem tolerable. On such issues experience has over and over again shown the difficulty of securing unanimity.
