Juan Cole is On

In case you don't regularly check Juan Cole's fine "Informed Comment" I'll point you in the direction of two fascinating posts he has up today.

Here you can read about the regional implications of the Iraqi insurgency (with a special focus on Jordan and Yemen). Here he notes a statement by Brigadier General Karpinski that we were using Israeli interrogators at Abu Ghraib. I don't have nearly enough energy to get properly outraged at that. I'd ask just how many American soldiers the president is determined to have killed in Iraq, but given his whole school playground macho man, "bring 'em on" attitude, and his disinterest in opinions that might call his own into question, it's sadly predictable in a way.
