Eric, in today's WSJ (April 4, 2015), Judith Miller has a retrospective on OIF titled "The Iraq War and Stubborn Myths." If you have time, it would be a good place for you to jump in.

Eric, today's vox.com may be of interest to you. Unfortunately, there is no comment section and no apparent way to contact the publisher for a rebuttal.
