Quick Links

The Quick Links will be early tonight as I have a six part essay (this time it really will be six parts only) that I'm going to post after this - and I want to stay on top until tomorrow (don't worry, it'll be very easy to follow). So, with out further jabbering:

Jordan becomes new R&R spot for occupation troops serving in Iraq - This will be a really cool R&R spot. I loved Petra - a most cool city and well worth the time to visit.

What Americans know - It begins and ends with some pretty vile anti-Americanism, but his look at some of the true problems with textbooks and curriculums rings very true. Too bad he buried it so much that few people will ever get to it.

Dutch trades union calls for Cuba boycot [sp.] - If we could only make Castro go away..... But I'm glad to see the Dutch unions pushing to get on board, even if their support is likely to only be temporary in nature.
