7. What Our Students--and Our Political Leaders--Don't Know about the Middle East. Footnotes. Volume 16, Number 11

Author

Foreign Policy Research Institute and Garfinkle, Adam

Abstract

The author wrote a piece called "What Our Children Should Learn about 9/11." In that piece, the author made just four simple points. These include: (1) children should know the facts; (2) once they had a grounding in the facts, the children should not abjure moral judgment; (3) children should learn to make both analytical and moral distinctions; and (4) children must learn to live with uncertainty, and specifically to understand the difference between living in fear and living with fear. Ten years have passed 9/11 and more than nine years have passed since he wrote that piece. He would not change a word had he to write it over again, but he has learned plenty over the past decade. Without repeating that little essay, the author wants to go back over each of the four points, especially the first one, in order to reflect on what the past decade has wrought. In this article he focuses on the first point: the importance of basic facts. (Contains 8 online resources.)

50. Liening on Saddam

Author

Garfinkle, Adam

Subjects
International relations, Political science
Abstract

Russia's opposition to the US plans of launching military strikes against Saddam Hussein can be diffused by buying Iraq's nearly $8 billion debt to Russia. This proposal is based on the premise that Russia's reason for protesting the military action borders more on greed than on diplomacy. Russia is very much aware that it cannot collect the money until the UN sanctions are lifted or significantly relaxed. The US must realize that shelling out $8 billion is relatively cheaper than any other means to oust Saddam from power. Iraq's huge oil reserves will serve as de facto collateral., Since last December's Primakov 'solution' to the latest phase of the Iraq crisis - which, as we learned in January, solved nothing at all - a small debate has congealed [...]
