Nation-Building in a Time of Terror (Herausforderung an die Weltordnung: Staatenbildung in einer Zeit des Terrors)

Nation-building is noble, but time-consuming. In Iraq, the U.S. should not just declare victory, and leave. It’s late in the day, but the U.S. should enlist UN help and make partners of the Iraqis who cheered the departure of Saddam Hussein. Whatever the UN’s shortcomings, it has experience in Afghanistan and Bosnia
that is applicable to Iraq.
