[revolutionradio.org] Pakistan: The War Party’s New Frontier: As in the 9/11 terrorist attacks, when our planes were used as weapons against us, al-Qaeda and its allies use our technological and military prowess against us. The very fighter jets that sow destruction in the hinterlands of Pakistan will reap a bumper crop of little Osamas - now one of the most popular names parents give to their male children across a wide swath of Pashtunistan and throughout the Muslim world.
[International Military Forums] Soft Power For Hard Problems: With the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan gobbling up most US military resources and monopolizing the attention of the nation's top policy-makers, Adm. Stavridis and like-minded senior officers, with the blessing of Secretary of Defense .
[WSJ.com: Baghdad Life] Bureaucracy, Favoritism and Corruption Still Hobble Iraq’s Progress: Soon the country, cut off from the rest of the world, lagged behind in terms of technological as well as economic and social advances.

[The Lazarus File] Standing on the precipice: But even a Republican presidency under McCain won’t be able to magically transform Iraq into a politically moderate and economically prosperous island of democracy in the Middle East, thus disappointing the neocons; and a Democratic presidency under Obama won’t be able to magically transform inner-city Detroit into an upper-middle-class paradise, or make Detroit’s automakers produce hybrid SUVs that survive 55-mph crashes, get 100 mpg and cost $12,000.

[hey hey my my, rock and roll will never die] Veep Show: It's a word that gets thrown around, sometimes negatively, but in the end this is a "change" election, and I think it's more likely that BO's pick is going to be an extension of that, and putting a 25-year entrenched veteran of the Senate on the ticket doesn't push that part of his desired narrative forward.
[Aris Deslis Weblog] THE ISRAEL LOBBY AND US FOREIGN POLICY: On September 20, a group of prominent neoconservatives and their allies published another open letter, telling the President that “even if evidence does not link Iraq directly to the [9/11] attack, any strategy aiming at the eradication of terrorism and its sponsors must include a determined effort to remove Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq.”163 The letter also reminded Bush that, “Israel has been and remains America’s staunchest ally against international terrorism.” In the October 1 issue of the Weekly Standard, Robert Kagan and William Kristol called for regime change in Iraq immediately after the Taliban was defeated. That same day, Charles Krauthammer argued in the Washington Post that after we were done with Afghanistan, Syria should be next, followed by Iran and Iraq.
[Mudville Gazette] The British Invasion: At home, Britons were stunned by the graphic footage of their soldiers being assaulted in a city thought to be "safe," especially in comparison to the blood-soaked urban areas of the Sunni Triangle which dominate news coverage emanating out of Iraq. The violent imagery was only the latest and most troubling indication of the British military's failure in Basra and its environs, a disastrous turn of events which seemed unthinkable two years ago, when British troops were welcomed into Basra with relatively open arms.
