Good to hear two of the "good guys" discussing things intelligently and in an informed manner. This should be heard by as many people as possible...

Nobody got a better, close-up view of the collapse of the former Yugoslavia than the last Canadian Ambassador there,  <http://www.deltax.net/bissett/index.html> Joe Bissett. So when Ambassador Bissett talks about Yugoslavia, Milosevic, and the mistakes western governments made it is worth a careful listen, perhaps especially because international intervention in Yugoslavia became a template and point of departure for later adventures in Afghanistan and Iraq. If you haven't got the fundamentals on the Yugoslav mess in roughly the right perspective it becomes orders of magnitude more difficult to understand the context of these later wars. It's the nitty-gritty of the world today. In his retirement Joe Bissett has very courageously taken unpopular positions, and I salute him for that. He personifies the truest aspirations of Canadian humanitarian thinking?it's fair to say, moreover, that in the best of all diplomatic traditions he's an officer and a gentleman. Runtime for this  <http://www.electricpolitics.com/media/mp3/EP2006.05.05.mp3> podcast is about fifty-eight minutes. Enjoy!
