[Creeping Sharia] Obama obsessed with Pakistan while al-Qaeda grows in Bangladesh ...: Thathiah Ravi (2006:119, 121) observes that the army has “outgrown its watchdog role to become the master of this nation state.” Ravi attributes America’s less than dependable alliance with Pakistan to the nature of its army. “Occasionally, it perceives the Pakistan Army as an inescapable ally and at other times as a threat to regional peace and [a] non-proliferation regime.” According to Ravi, India and Afghanistan blame the conflict in Kashmir and the Durand line on the Pakistan Army, accusing it of “inciting, abetting and encouraging terrorism from its soil.” Ravi also blames the “flagrant violations in nuclear proliferation by Pakistan, both as an originator and as a conduit for China and North Korea” on the Pakistan Army, because of its support for terrorists.

[McNutt Against the Music] ”¦in which McNutt recaps Gwynne Dyer’s lecture on global heating ...: Dyer believes that we’re in a sort of “golden age” in terms of conflict on this planet where - despite all the shit going down - 90 per cent of the people on earth have never had a hostile shot fired at them and where none of the great military powers are at war with one another (a rarity in global history). Given that any pact to combat climate change needs to be international, and needs to involve complicated negotiations between the current industrialized powers (mainly the US, but also Europe and Russia) and the rapidly-industrializing countries (China, India, Brazil, etc.), Dyer believes that maintaining this relative global peace is essential to getting concrete action in place as soon as possible.

[Political Radar] Political Radar: Bush Dodges Shoes on Farewell Iraq Visit: TYPICAL BUSH: He's been lying to us for 6 years about how much wonderful progress has been made in Iraq, and then HE HAS TO GO THERE IN SECRET because the SECURITY SITUATION IS SO BAD!!!

[Comments for 38 Pitches] 38 Pitches » Blog Archive » I’ll be wearing mine”¦: I wore the uniform too - 5 years (the requisite initial 4 with an extension and get the hell out.) Before I entered the service I didn’t think there were others like myself who were cynical of traditional military culture while admiring and respecting of the sacrifice a good many (but by no means all) of our military members make during their service to country, but, yeah, there are lots of people just like myself (and more so) in the military who serve the country at the whim of our elected leaders in hopes that they don’t play recklessly with our valuable lives and those of our families as the current band of rogue warriors have done with respect to Iraq for the past 6+ years.

[The Spectator.co.uk Melanie Phillips Blog] Playing politics with Iraq | The Spectator: Lending significant credence to Obama's response is the fact that -- though it's absent from the Post story and other retellings -- in addition to Obama and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, this July meeting was also attended by Bush administration officials, such as U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker and the Baghdad embassy's legislative affairs advisor Rich Haughton, as well as a Republican senator, Chuck Hagel of Nebraska.
