the law of unintended consequences is to be applied

[Michael Eisenstadt]

Saddam Hussein captured may lead to a far higher level
of insurgent attacks and American casualties. 

Seymour Hersh's article in last week's New Yorker
magazine is incendiary. If he is reporting accurately,
the American side has been concerting with Israeli
experts on how to contain an insurgency, that the
Israeli experts are working closely to teach their 
methods, may even be in Iraq.

This when known (half the Arab world already believes
that this is the case) will absolutely guarantee that
the insurgency will NEVER come to an end.
