Well, yeah---all of the above and then some! The RFJ Program is a good setup. Clinton couldn't support it but it's done good work in spite. And it is WORLD WIDE. The notion that it was some how suspended in Pakiland is what the Haw'ns say: KAKA! I've written to them numerous times and know they are set up to be reached internationally. I still say the butch chick spent too much time studying URDU and ought to be kept away from moving things, like progress.
... ought to be kept away from moving things, like progress.
Yes..moving things is a critical point. Situations change--dramatically so in the ME. And that alone calls for the character parts to be recast. Like Colin Powell out/ Condi Rice in.
Thinking about it, I was probably a bit too anal about Miniter using the word 'little'. He probably meant 'few' (rewards have been paid...)
As an aside, and moving the subject to Iraq...I think that in Iraq, the incidents of locals coming forward with info about bad guys will increase dramatically as an Iraqi gov't takes shape. My gut feeling is that it will be entirely more acceptable for Iraqis to rat out the troublemakers to Iraqi authority (as opposed to 'Coalition' authority) and that will ripple across the region.
