Pride of place this week definitely goes to Tom's short post on Chinese peacekeeping with the Stratfor graphic, Chinese contribution to UN Peacekeeping Operations. It got picked up by MountainRunner, Danger Room, Pacific Empire, and Robot Economist (who says he can't stand Tom). + Cheat Seeking Missiles says Tom's vision of the world is coming to pass. + Sen Harry Reid's memoir will be written with Tom's editor extraordinaire, Mark Warren. Tom is listed in Mark's work. + Neptunus Lex noted hearing Tom's Brief last week, then did a more extended treatment. + And The Happy Carpenter linked Neptunus saying we need deep thinkers like Tom. + igginzz links The Pentagon's New Map (article). + SCSU Scholars linked Price and technology AND the level of state involvement. + Chapomatic linked One of the weirder military sales jobs of this administration. + We've got these videos available other places, but if you're really into YouTube, here's a link to the seven videos of two Briefs over there. + Critt continues to add to his Grazr work on Tom. This one includes Google Video of Tom on Conversations with History. + Zenpundit linked The Pinkertons of the 21st Century. + Observing Japan links Tom as someone who wants China to be a stakeholder. + Big Lizards refers to Tom's Functioning Core. + Catholicgauze refers to Tom's Gap. + Outside the Beltway linked The readiness canard. I have more, but I'm going to save them for Sunday.
