Update for Wednesday, June 11, 2015

Slippery slope edition. Obama to send 450 additional troops to Iraq and establish a 5th U.S. base, this one in Anbar province, to “train and advise” Iraq troops — or more accurately, it seems, Sunni tribal forces not integrated with the Iraqi army. This is because the $25 billion the U.S. has spent training and advising Iraqi forces since 2003 has apparently failed to have any useful effect.
Some of it might have helped the more than 1 million Iraqis who currently lack basic food, water and shelter. Heck, even $1 billion probably couldn't hurt.
