North Korea busted: Iraq hopeful? Posted by Lorelei Kelly

Looks like the only thing  that wacky dictator of North Korea  can launch is a blast of hot air across the ocean. Upon examination, the missile launch threat looks pretty bogus. Not that all the hype kept Congress from dumping another 45 million dollars into the Alaskan tundra for the "missile defense" program--which is fast becoming Alaska's mythical creature, like the Sasquatch in Montana or Nessie in Scotland. Lots of almost-sightings, but never the real deal.  This on top of the increasing worry that the military can't make payroll.  Priorities anyone?

Council for a Livable World has put up a clickable record of last week's Senate Iraq debate here.    Hopeful news from Iraq... a political reconciliation proposal is on the table.  A civil affairs friend who was in Iraq last year (and who  still helps train Army troops pre-deployment) credits Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzhad with this breakthrough. This proposal is the first concrete sign of an American/Iraqi civilian-led strategy in Iraq, in fact because our primary military strategy of door-kicking and city flattening has made the reconciliation part nigh impossible.

"Everyone has talked reconciliation but played whack a mole" he tells me. He also thinks
Khalilzad was the first American leader to successfully link the  military strategy to support for a political process...which has brought in the uncomfortable possibility of amnesty. The tradeoff of justice for peace is probably one of the most difficult steps a nation can take...It has an illustrated history just in the last couple of decades. Concilation Resources has a helpful directory of peace accords online. Plus a list of amnesties....a glance through these is a good  refresher in the current accusatory climate over who's in and who's out of the Iraq deal.

Many lament that aggressive "democratization" under the Bush Administration has tainted a key set of American foreign policy values.  This is true and it will take some damage control for us to be believable from here on out. Yet the notion that self-determination yields better outcomes at every level is a worthy national security value--for prevention, post conflict, and we hope in Iraq-- during an identity war itself. We need to get good at dealing with complexity and conflicting identities because these will be the biggest challenges for security in an era of globalization.

Conflict resolution strategies that enable political pluralism were underlying themes for much of President Clinton's national security and military policies--In the military it was called "shaping" stability--more or less a hearts and minds campaign at all times.

As we keep our fingers crossed for Iraq's new leaders and their reconciliation plan, we should also think about how to revise this integrated "whole of government" approach to national security.  Indeed, the US facilitating political conflict resolution must replace preventive war as the centerpiece of today's strategy.  Hopefully this will be the lesson we draw from Iraq's effort.

For those who have not used a 24-hour hand,it makes one full revolution of the dial over 24 hours which means that 12 pm is at 6 clock on the dial.This features allows you to track two timezones: one using the standard time hands,and the other using the GMT hand and the 24hr bezel.The bezel has a grippy coin edge and a light but clicky turn.The included bracelet is nice and light.Replica Casio Watches features solid end links (spring bars),and the outer links of the bracelet are screwed together.The clasp has a fold-over design with a signed safety.The bracelet is a perfect fit for the Replica Wittnauer Watches and integrates beautifully with the lugs.I will mention that the PVD on the bracelet is very light and after some considerable time on my wrists,there is noticeable wear.If PDV wear bothers you,go with the brushed/polished model instead (brushed on top and polished on the sides of the case).This is a Replica Vacheron Constantin that is up for just about any task and does so with little fuss or explanation.I wore it on a twelve day trip to San Francisco and Replica Ulysse Nardin Watches kept up perfectly.The Replica Zodiac Watches is light enough to be worn without consideration,classy enough to be worn with any attire,and with the GMT complication,it is a traveler's best friend.It's amazingly accurate; many days,it showed no deviance at all,and after a month,it is usually within +/-4 seconds.The G-1 starts at $549,which is an amazing price for a watch of this quality.Many other Replica Tommy Hilfiger Watches that feature this movement retail for hundreds to thousands more,and the G-1 is without a doubt the best design from OCEAN7 that we have reviewed to date.The model as reviewed is $599,and the buyer can choose from a series of bezel colors to suit either finish.OCEAN7 Watch Company have outdone themselves on the new G-1 GMT *** a very cool watch that doesn't sacrifice quality,features,looks,or everyday practicality; For updates on content,follow Watch Report on Twitter.
