No New Thing Under The Sun
Bush & Maliki announce new Baghdad security plan. Henley and Crowley note a suspicious similarity to the "new" Baghdad security plan launched five or six weeks ago. That plan, in turn, was seemingly the same as April's "second liberation of Baghdad" and so on and so forth.

Has anyone compiled a list of the "new dawns" in Iraq since the invasion began? There was the Saddam statue moment, the transfer of "sovereignty", Saddam's capture, the election, the new constitution and quite a few others.
Each time there were cries of vindication by war supporters as well as much crowing at how this or that shining moment utterly discredited opponents of the war. All this is great material for exposing just how foolish and naive pro-war commentators have been over the last few years and the blogosphere needs to make better use of it.
