What We’re Reading

As Pakistan deteriorates, the U.S. has few policy options.  The U.S. is particularly concerned about nuclear security.

Afghan President Hamid Karzai registered for the Afghan presidential election.  He announced a new running mate, a powerful Tajik warlord, and removed his current VP, the brother of a slain resistance hero.  A prominent opposition challenger withdrew his name from the presidential race after a four-hour meeting with Karzai.  President Karzai will join Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari in Washington later this week.

Questioned by a fourth grader at a Washington school, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice again defended President Bush on enhanced interrogation techniques, saying that he wouldn’t have authorized anything illegal.

Commentary of the Day

The New York Times urges the Obama administration to push harder for political reconciliation in Iraq.

The Wall Street Journal discusses the challenges facing Haiti and its new prime minster.

Amir Taheri looks at how Iran fills power vacuums and spreads its influence throughout the Middle East, claiming that the Obama administration’s “weakness” and exit strategy will allow Iran to rise regardless of diplomatic successes.

A.J. Langguth says that the U.S. in fact has a 45-year history of torture, describing U.S. involvement in atrocities in South America.

Dreaming in its proactive sense is hard work. If you really want to create

wealth, you must work hard at your skill to dream. Without the mental

picture of how much wealth you want to accumulate, you cannot create wealth.
