SOME RECOMMENDED READING
First, John Lewis Gaddis in Foreign Affairs on Grand strategy in a Second Term. I find remarkably little to disagree with in this essay ( which usually indicates that I should be reading more critically) which often parallels what I wrote about the Bush administration for HNN - minus my direct references to PNM Theory, though Gaddis has better prose and more gravitas.
Critt Jarvis, the proprietor of Systemperturbations and technical wizard of NRSP on Mosul. Critt it turns out, also has a background in military intelligence and his son is stationed in Mosul.
A World Without Israel in Foreign Policy by Josef Joffe. Joffe often writes for The National Interest but publishes Die Zeit.
A reflective post with a link by JB at riting on the wall on history's forgotten genocide.
Colin Powell says goodbye. ( Hat tip New Sisyphus )
And to lighten the mood, from CNN, an amusing story that makes a good argument for reforming the jury system.
That's it.
