On November 29, a new missive from Osama bin Laden was released to the world. The message came first to the news outlet al Jeezera, where most of his messages have been passed, and at the time of writing, it has not been confirmed by the intelligence community that it is in fact Bin Laden. Assuming it is, however, the message bears some very real implications for the ongoing conflict in Afghanistan. In the message, among other things, bin Laden said that Europe would do well to withdraw from...

It also is relevant because in Panama, U.S. forces achieved strategic and operational objectives with relatively low costs in terms of time, blood, and treasure. While the situation in Panama was clearly easier, strategy played a...
