More than three years ago, George W. Bush declared major military operations in Iraq over, yet we still occupy that country with conflicting and vague ideas as to our mission there. For all their sacrifices, the men and women of our Armed Forces deserve more from us.

Today, the situation on the ground is increasingly dangerous for our troops and for Iraqi citizens. Where do we go from here? What is our exit strategy?

We have gathered an outstanding panel of experts who will candidly address the political, social, religious, military and economic realities presented by the Iraq conflict.
