I just finished reading Jason Vest’s article, Fables of the Reconstruction,” and I am amazed, but not surprised, by the assertions made by that Coalition Provisional Authority official.

I want to applaud Mr. Vest’s work in uncovering this memo and wish him and the CPA official safety from those who may want to harm or discredit them for actually allowing the people to see the truth. Maybe now something can be done about it, although I’m not sure what.

Thanks for publishing such a great article!
