Quotation of the Day for January 4, 2016



"You know, I never gave George W Bush enough credit for what he's done in the Middle East," Luttwak continued. "I failed to appreciate at the time that he was a strategic genius far beyond Bismarck. He ignited a religious war between Shi'ites and Sunnis that will occupy the region for the next 1,000 years. It was a pure stroke of brilliance!"

- Edward Luttwak, strategist and consultant, from an interview with Thomas Meaney.
