Egg recall fades against big egg consumption
Our View notes Americans eat about 220 million eggs daily, making a 550 million egg recall seem less dramatic. Still, concerns linger as the recall threatens two large egg farms and health officials estimate up to 1300 illnesses from contaminated eggs, though no deaths are reported.

Treating Iraq as ally after surge ends risks future pullback
Rich Lowry argues that after the 2007 surge and a reduced U.S. presence, Iraq could become Obama’s South Vietnam if Washington withdraws too quickly. He urges sustaining a deep strategic partnership, continuing a troop presence past 2011, and integrating Iraqi security with U.S. diplomacy to prevent a relapse into civil conflict. He cites Brookings’ Kenneth Pollack on civil-war relapse and warns against squandering the opportunity in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Cameron seeks Philip Green to cut Britain debt crisis
British Prime Minister David Cameron calls on Sir Philip Green to lead a spending review and slash virtually every government program. The 1,340 billion pound national debt tops 103.5 percent of GDP, with VAT rising and welfare costs looming. Green’s task draws parallels to a budget fix in the film Dave, urging a drastic, broad reform of public spending.
