Next week, President Bush will give his much anticipated update on whether increased U.S. troop levels in Iraq have improved security there. We’ll look at the journey the President’s policy has taken since January…its impacts on the ground…and on the national political debate raging over whether to stay in Iraq.

  • Wayne Lesperance, Associate Professor of Political Science at New England College
  • Jeremy Pressman, Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Connecticut and co-author of the book “Point of No Return: The Deadly Struggle for Middle East Peace”.
