Lessons Learned: Iraq and Afghanistan
The new administration will make the first war-time transition since 1974--with not one, but two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. What are the key lessons learned from those inside the Bush administration? What are the strategic imperatives for the next administration about the use of US power in the world? And, what must be done in the new administration's first 100 days?
Our panelists, Kristofer Harrison (The U.S. State Department, and formerly the office of the Secretary of Defense, Jeff Berkowitz (formerly the White House and the U.S. State Department), James Poulos (Culture11.com) and David Donadio (Doublethink Online, Carnegie Endowment) explored this issue.

Drinks were at 6:30, the panel began at 7pm. Roundtables are free for AFF members and $5 for non-members.
