Thomas Barnett : Pentagon's new map for War and Peace

After watching Thomas Barnetts presentation, I admit there are several "ideas" of what should of been enacted within our government, military, top ranking officials that are now in "control". I agree with Barnett regarding "peacekeepers" if these bodies had been in place awaiting their call at the beginning of the invasion into Iraq once the "kick ass " period was over, we as a country would have been able to at least start applying the necessary means of developing a stabilized, functional government in Iraq. I am not saying that this transition would have happened over night, but I feel that the entire war AFTER the take down of Saddam would have at the very least progressed forward in a more positive direction for the US and the people of Iraq.
