RECOMMENDED READING
Posts and articles that have intrigued or amused me lately:
From Coming Anarchy we have two winners. Younghusband has brought additional points to light on PMCs and Curzon has highlighted some genuinely sophmoric foolishness masquerading as enlightenment at Harvard.
Phil Carter of Slate and Intel Dump comments on the idea of a Foreign Legion for America, something I have proposed in the past on HNN. Carter draws on Max Boot initially but offers an extended analysis. Nicely complements Younghusband's and John Robb's posts.
From Done with Mirrors, Callimachus reveals his bibliomania for all to see.
Miss Pundita discourses on the dangers of Westerners " Going native" when faced with drastically different cultural norms
Dave at The Glittering Eye has dug up some tactical advice for would-be Jihadis headed to Iraq.
Juan Cole has decided that the Bush administration and Iran's new hardline Islamist President are political twins. The Ayatollah Rove, Juan ? Supreme Jurisprudent Bush ? Tom Barnett has a far less hyperbolic assessment of Iran's election.
Orac at Respectful Insolence draws attention to the deep influence the Hitler Zombie manages to have on contemporary American political debate.
Marc Schulman at The American Future posts on the 9/11 Mentality.
Jodi at The Asia Pages discusses the cultural exportability of Anime.
