Greetings,

There has been much media play recently about my saying that Iraq is experiencing a Civil War. Many readers asked that I clarify those words, and so I have taken time to carefully describe my assertions.

More importantly, it's time that people know what our troops have to say. Please spread the word about our "Frontline Forum." If you know any troops who have something they would like to say in front of a large and distinguished audience, I am interested in publishing their words and photos. Please ask the troops to visit the "Frontline Forum." This isn't a writing or photography contest. We just want the truth, be it good, bad or ugly. My readership ranges from parents and family of deployed troops, to top military and civilian leadership, to Al Qaeda. (So please don't tell secrets). Rest assured, words published on "Frontline Forum" will be read by grandmothers, generals and top politicians.

Respectfully,
