    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;Operator decision, 2026-08-19: whyItMatters.outcome is now the page&apos;s primary hook and every analysis was rewritten to a single short, concrete, human-stakes sentence (docs/EDITORIAL.md, Permanent standards #4) — replacing several that had grown into full paragraphs or abstract policy-thesis phrasing. (Iraq has set a real deadline with a real legal threat behind it, and the one time state forces tested whether the threat could be backed by force, they were the ones who had to leave → Iraq threatened militias with terrorism charges. The one time it tried to enforce that, its own troops retreated.)&lt;/p&gt;</content>
