I am starting to notice a trend in
reporting about our Military Personnel currently in harms way. The New York
Times is demonstrating a better than average amount of reporting on both
current and future conflicts that have a good possibility of involving the U.S.
Military.
The
New York Times
New
York, Friday, August 24, 2012
Lots
of coverage on page A10: Iran’s
nuclear program
Afghan-on-Afghan
Attacks
China
vs. Myanmar
Although, not directly involving our
Military, these are three issues of ominous importance to the United States.
The
New York Times
New
York, Saturday, August 25, 2012
Good
coverage on page A6: Syrian
Refugees
Pakistani
Militant Leader Dead by Drone
Acknowledgement
of our War Dead
Any day that a Drone strikes the right
target is a good day. Syria will most likely come into play in the near future.
Any chance to memorialize our fallen Service Personnel is most welcomed by the
Military Veteran sector.
The
New York Times
New
York, Sunday, August 26, 2012
International
Section, pages 8 & 9: More on the
Massacres in Syria
More
on Pakistani militant leader’s death by Drone
More
on China vs. Myanmar
Afghan
tribal warring
Hamas
/ Gaza / Israel conflict
It seems that the more
information I gather concerning armed conflicts and and other restless
situations that stand to occupy our Military strength, the more I am impressed
with the appearance of just how "Tribal" vast segments of the World
are. This leads me to believe there are no "Nations", and, perhaps,
there is no "United States of America". Maybe we are simply Tribes
involved in a loose association with each other.
