Kimberly Kagan heads the Institute for the Study of War, and often writes articles cheerleading the US war in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Kelley Vlahos comments on Kagan:

But one click onto the organization’s Web site and it becomes clear that the institute is all about pushing a specific doctrine, not "enhancing the quality of policy debates." It is riddled with op-eds that Kagan wrote to force the administration’s hand, to challenge its mettle for the fight – the exact same language and tone used to egg on skeptical fence-sitters in Congress during the Bush years and to embarrass Democrats in various political campaigns over the last eight years..

Her husband is Frederick Kagan, a neocon based at the AEI.
