Jay Parker: we are often pushed to reduce complex issues to common threads that don’t deal with all essential issues. Disappointing that we don’t look at complexities vs throwing quick military or $ solutions at problems.
What are our real elements of national power and what are our real National interests.
At National Defense U, many international students come from countries where most military and police strategies are used internally.
Malou– we must examine how our policies exacerbate/eventuate further terrorism. El Shavab has great recruiting in Minnesota bc of Somali community

Globalization is often described as “glories and advantages” of modern world, but often technologies bring I to contact cultures that don’t yet know how to interact with each other. However, communication doesn’t = understanding and understanding doesn’t = agreement. Paradox that just by communicating and understanding, we won’t necessarily “just all get along.”
