Our November/December cover story, "The War We Deserve," has provoked a good deal of controversy about who bears responsibility for the war on terror and its offspring in Iraq. Arguing that the political demands Americans make of their government—low taxes, limited military engagement, an all-voluntary Army—inevitably lead to the kind of war Americans find themselves in today, Roberts questions the very relationship they have with their government.

Now, it's your turn to ask the author about his article. Do you agree that Americans have sacrificed too little and asked for too much in this age of global terrorism? Do you believe the real fault for any mismanagement of the war on terror lies with the administration that pursued it? Send us any questions you have for FP author Alasdair Roberts by 6 p.m. this Thursday, November 15, and we'll post his answers at ForeignPolicy.com on Tuesday, November 20.

This is your chance to join the debate. Don't miss it!
