Peace-Building That Pays Off
Peace-Building That Pays Off by General Anthony Zinni (USMC, Ret.), New York Times opinion. BLUF: “In voting last month to eliminate financing for the United States Institute of Peace, members of the House of Representatives did not do their research. You will find the institute’s competent work behind practically every American success in Iraq and Afghanistan. It has undertaken missions from the Balkans and Sudan to the Philippines and Somalia, where I supported the institute’s efforts to mediate conflicts, promote the rule of law and encourage democracy.”
