==[[Iraq Study Group: Officials Interviewed]]==
===Not on the list===
On November 14, 2006, Mike Boyer [http://blog.foreignpolicy.com/node/2265 wrote] in the ''Passport'' Blog at ''Foreign Affairs'' Online that the "list is notable for its exceptions. ... This commission appears as isolated from the academy as the Bush administration is," Boyer wrote.
 
The following are NOT found on the list (as stated by Boyer):
 
#Amb. [[Zalmay Khalilzad]], "perhaps the one U.S. official who has addressed the Iraq debacle with some candor and foresight -- and certainly the one official history will look kindly upon."
#[[John McCain]], [[Chuck Hagel]], and [[John Kerry]], "three of the U.S. Senate's most notable veterans of combat. This one is mind blowing."
#[[Paul Wolfowitz]] and [[Richard Perle]], "two key architects of the war, one a former dean of one of the most prestigious IR schools in the country."
#[[Madeleine K. Albright]] and [[Warren Christopher]]. "The views of [[Clinton administration|Team Clinton]] don't appear very welcome."
#[[Henry Kissinger]], "the dean of the foreign-policy establishment."
#[[George H.W. Bush]] and [[Bill Clinton]]. "The former commanders in chief (one of whom actually won a war and flew 58 combat missions in WWII) remain on the sidelines."
#[[Fouad Ajami]], [[Shibley Telhami]], [[Bernard Lewis]], [[Ray Takeyh]], [[Kanan Makiya]], and "other notable scholars on the Middle East."
