Ginsberg's exploration of how the lingering Vietnam War protest dynamic undercut the United States' ability to fight the Iraq War. The antiwar movement prevented policymakers from taking steps necessary to secure a lasting victory in Iraq and produced an emerging Iraq Syndrome-a post-Iraq reluctance by policymakers to credibly threaten and, if necessary, use force to protect American interests. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGinsberg argues that a segment of Americans, from students and Sixties protestors to pop icons and journalists, are inclined to oppose any US military actions to recreate the antiwar culture of the Sixties and follow the Vietnam protest template. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDrawing from this thesis, Ginsberg identifies important parallels between the Vietnam protest movement and the Iraq War opposition. Ginsberg concludes America's always-latent antiwar movement gravely threatens the United States' ability to protect its interests but that policymakers can take steps to avoid this fate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMichael E.
