A very interesting video from journalist Chris Hedges show On Contact that discusses the current situation in the Middle East and North Africa. The theme that the United States and its allies did not formulate a strategy for how to transition these countries after wars is not new but people need to be reminded. The United States and its allies should have had a Marshall Plan vision for this area as well as a commitment for more troops to maintain order. Little is accomplished and more reactionary forces fill the vacuum when these post-war projects are done on the cheap.
