Foreign affairs gem

Site worth reading ...


Munir Umrani tirelessly tracks the most important stories in foreign policy and diplomatic relations

The Diplomatic Times Review does something very well most bloggers cannot manage, myself included -- that is bring a wide scope of critical world stories to light every day. Munir has an uncanny ability to find the twists and turns in foreign affairs that helps a reader see the true picture of the world much more clearly than reading the news without him.

Not only that, the site deserves great kudos for design and readability.

I'll just mention two items from Deep Blade Journal that would be enhanced with a parallel read of Diplomatic Times Review. First, check out this item on a Christian Science Monitor column 'Take up the Western Man's Burden'. Explains nicely the picture of Bush giving Iraq orders, that I blogged about yesterday.

Also, see Munir's comprehensive references to British press accounts of Tony Blair's Goldsmith memo fiasco. Go here and read backwards through the posts. Very nice work! Thank you Munir.
