Changing course in Iraq?
In his Washington Post column today, David Ignatius discusses how the new Bush plan looks slightly familiar:

Both are talking about cutting U.S. troop strength, relying on Iraqi security forces and brokering a compromise among Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds. That’s as it should be: When the nation is at war, there should be rough consensus between the two parties about strategy.
