	Canadian literature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It cannot be described as malicious (although at Canadian literature's beginning, re-invasion by the U.S. was a legitimate fear), but is better seen as mild sibling rivalry, and may tie in with Canada's loyalty to the underdog as opposed to the haughty hero, two roles played by Canada and the U.S. in Canadian mythology.
		Canadians have been known to be good at laughing at themselves, which ties in nicely with their ability for satire and humour.
		This is characteristic of the Canadians themselves, as it highlights the complexity they face in attempting it justify their country's identity.

	World Affairs Board - Commanders explain Canadian Forces transformation
		The term "Canadian military" should never be an oxymoron, but after a decade of reduction and decline what was once one of the world's most able and elite combat organizations is now a hollow force.
		With the end of the Cold War some reduction in force structure was understandable, though Canadian forces in 1992 were arguable already "lean" in terms of personnel and equipment.
		In my opinion, the Canadian brigade was the best brigade in NATO, which probably meant at that moment in time it was the best brigade man for man in the world.

	terrorism and drug prohibition
		Now that the war is over and the major powers are trying to disarm the war factions that did not the join the paramilitary forces, the KLA, in order to continue to grow, is involved in a great deal of drugs and labour trafficking in Italy.
		Much of the world’s underground traffic in diamonds, rubies, emeralds, lapis lazuli, jade, ivory, teakwood and "recreational drugs" along with part of the traffic in looted antiquities is currently, if not actually controlled at source by this or that insurgent group, then at least taxed by them.
		Arms for the armoured divisions, which were previously paid for by syphoning funds from the state alcohol monopoly (AAL), are now financed out of the profits from the traffic in contraband cigarettes.

		The British First Armored Division would spend the next three weeks patiently chipping away at Iraqi defenses, all the while being careful to avoid the kind of street fighting that Saddam clearly hoped to trigger.
		Although this fighting was going on in full view of the world's press, an even more critical aspect of the campaign was taking place outside the glare of television cameras: navy, air force, and marine aircraft, along with army helicopters, artillery, and rockets, were pounding Republican Guard divisions dug in south of Baghdad.
		In a teleconference, the administration's "war cabinet" considered whether to stop the advance and wait for reinforcements, as many armchair strategists were suggesting.

	Whistle Stopper Political Forums - Origins of the Cold War
		And when we look at Cold War and the results of US and SU policies and the areas of their domination, it's quite an interesting picture (and a sad one for you no doubt).
		As far as the origins of the cold war, I hold it true that the scientist who made atomic bomb plans availible to other nations is really who started the cold war.
		Had the plans been solely the US's, we would not have had a dominence war with the USSR/Russia, although we may have had many nuclear wars with other countries as there was no reason why we could not use the weapon besides being morally wrong.

		When the ecumenical delegates assembled in Amsterdam in 1948, the world was still recovering from wounds inflicted by a second world war, and one of the things they had to address from the start was the failure of the ecumenical movement to speak the truth in that time of crisis.
		The German world of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was fascinated with concepts of race, mythology, and mysticism.
		The World War II era ecumenists failed to appreciate the dangers of such a situation.
