technically, it's a report by a visiting research professor to the strategic studies institute clearly containing the proviso that "[t]he views expressed in this report are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the [d]epartment of the [a]rmy, the [d]epartment of [d]efense, or the [u].[s]. [g]overnment." to say that the war college itself is critical of the bush administration's handling of the war on terror is a bit of a reach. this is an example of the military having sense enough to commission studies that look at all of the sides of an issue.
but to attribute the work of a visiting professor to be the attitude of the college is kinda like taking a guest contributor from the ny times's opinion and touting it as the paper's opinion. if you took roberto pazzi's piece from january 11th for example, you'd get this headline, "new york times calls for next pope to be italian." well, if they didn't agree with that opinion, then why would they publish it, right? c'mon...
