[AsburyPark] People Argue...Maybe It's Time to Pause
Tonight at 10. Maybe time to pause and learn some more. Inside America's Empire'': Military expert Robert Kaplan travels around the world to see how the U.S. defends against terror threats. Kaplan is a national correspondent for The Atlantic and the Class of 1960 Distinguished Visiting Professor in National Security at the United States Naval Academy. The TV program: Click here: America at a Crossroads. Inside America's Empire | PBS http://www.pbs.org/weta/crossroads/about/show_inside_americas_empire.ht\ ml From Amazon Starting in the Fall of 2003, Robert Kaplan spent six months with Special Forces teams all over the world and with a Marine combat unit in Iraq. His goal was to understand the changing nature of American war fighting techniques from the perspectives of non-coms and junior officersThe United States military is in the process of evolving to fight a new kind of war and Kaplan is there to chronicle this transformation as it takes places in the jungles of Colombia and the Phillipines and the deserts of Afghanistan, Yemen and Iraq. It is an important story and more journalists need to be covering it. 13 WNET Mon 9/3 10:00 PM 21 WHYY Mon 9/3 10:00 PM 713 WNETDT Mon 9/3 10:00 PM 713 WNETDT Tue 9/4 1:00 AM 132 WLIWDT4 Sun 9/9 10:00 PM 132 WLIWDT4 Mon 9/10 2:00 AM 132 WLIWDT4 Mon 9/10 9:00 AM 132 WLIWDT4 Mon 9/10 3:00 PM Nota bene: Noam Chomsky has called Kaplan an untra-right wing jingoist. But Chomsky has more than enough of his own critics ( http://tinyurl.com/e6cxa http://tinyurl.com/e6cxa ) , so I'm betting Kaplan is generically moderate. I'll just look for integrity no matter where he is on that continuum.

Sorry. The correct link for that overview is _Click here: Criticism of Noam Chomsky - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Noam_Chomsky) Note that to be fair and balanced, and politically correct here, I've provided access to criticisms of the epitome of ultra-left wingdom. Also, note that it's an overview for laymen, not original sources, not for serious researchers or academics; but you can use the new tool to evaluate what's there. _http://tinyurl.com/yu8jyj_ (http://tinyurl.com/yu8jyj) ** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour
