After describing Embedded’s cast of characters—shady pols leading the nation to war in Iraq, tamed journalists, and a trio of soldiers??Robbins could easily opine further on the heavy matters dealt with in the play, or whine about the very mixed reviews critics gave his theatrical production, which was a popular success.

To be sure, such calculations usually occur in a context where soldiers?? lives are at stake, but if America is to be true to its stated goals of bringing security and stability to the Iraqi people, it is necessary that forces err on the side of civilian safety. At the very least, America must demonstrate a stronger public commitment in this area.
