What lessons can the current President learn from that achievement? Even if Barack Obama tries to make peace with the mullahs of Iran or with insurgents in Afghanistan, as Reagan did with the U.S.S.R., there's no guarantee he'll succeed. The threats facing America cannot be willed away. Defusing them will ultimately require the mix of firm resolve and patient diplomacy practiced by successful American statesmen throughout the Cold War. Reagan's gift was his ability to speak candidly about the realities of the age while still presenting, and working toward, an optimistic vision of the future. He sensed...

Colombia can only watch in angst and appeal to higher bodies such as the UN Security Council and the Organization of American States because it cannot simply back down to Chavez’s displeasure. The United States’s increasing presence in Colombia could not be the consequence of a more serious issue—contesting and fighting drug cartels, and drugs themselves, at one of their primary sources.

...website, in its typically patriotic but omnisciently weird way, declares these 450 new soldiers - all sent to Afghanistan, Iraq or the Horn of Africa - "100% support the Global War on Terrorism.") During Ramadan, fast-breaking dinners are regularly held at the Pentagon and other military installations. Because Muslims cannot eat or drink from dawn to dusk during their holy month, dining facilities have opened earlier and closed later in war zones to accommodate their beliefs. In short, the right steps have been taken to make Muslims feel as comfortable as possible in a fighting force waging two wars against Islamic...
