(Manchester, NH) - In August 2003, five months after the beginning of the Iraq war, John E. Sununu still misunderstood the social and political climate in Iraq so badly that he proclaimed we were "winning the hearts and minds" of Iraqis. One year later, even the Pentagon had to admit that the struggle for hearts and minds had not only failed, it had caused an anti-American backlash.
