Function in search of real force

ARTICLE: UK sets up force for failing states in wake of Iraq, By Katherine Baldwin, Reuters, Mar 19, 2008

The Brits ante up a SysAdmin force chip that--last time I heard--the EU had considered and rejected. Still, a nice gesture from the usual suspect.

The thing with all such proposals? By itself it's almost meaningless, but combined with a serious U.S. dedicated effort, it can really add up fast.

For now, it's a function in search of a real force.
