Michael Greenstone, a professor of Economics at MIT, performed a statistical analysis to determine if the surge in Iraq has been successful or not. His goal is to provide an objective analysis using data from numerous sources. The conclusion is mixed. In terms of casualties of civilians and soldiers, there's an improvement. In terms of economic factors, there is a decline.
One would think that economic improvements would not happen simultaneously with the improvements for the civilians, etc.
Take a gander if you wish. You will need a program that reads .PDF files.
