Bartleby and Iraq

Most of the people that posted to the blog were not directly involved or affected by the war. In Bartleby the lawyer was not directely affected in kicking Bartleby out of the office. The lawyer wanted to do everything he could to help Bartleby be on his own and no longer be homeless. He even offered him money and eventually a place to stay. This is similar in the way we are helping Iraq set up a new government so they can thrive on their own. Unfortunately, Bartleby dies in the story so you could forshadow that Iraq will fail. I do not think this will be the case though, we have come this far and we will not stop until we win.
