ASP Senior Fellow Dr. Bernard Finel column in Armed Forces Journal: An Alternative to COIN | American Security Project

Bernard Finel argues that the decision to remain in Iraq after toppling the regime of Saddam Hussein was wrong: instead of implementing a strategy of nation-building and COIN, the US should have left Iraq: it was very unlikely, according to Finel, that the situation would have gotten worse than it did, and anyway, if a new threat for the US emerged, the costs of reintervening would have been much lower, both in dollar-terms and in US casualties. These arguments are brought forward from a very realistic point of view, where the interests of the US are the main concern.
