Important stuff
Things are getting worse in Afghanistan, (NYTimes) "Taliban Escalate Fighting With Assault on U.S. Base," (LATimes) "insurgents ambushed and killed 10 French soldiers and wounded 21 in a sustained assault outside the capital."
In Iraq, Maliki's struggling to stay on top, (NYTimes) "Iraqi Government Raid Threatens to Inflame Province’s Tensions."
And, Algeria's entering it's second day of massive bombings, 43 killed yesterday, 11 more killed in two bombings today.
(I'd like to do more on each, because each of these is important, but I'm just not feeling too bloggy this morning. Maybe later.)

Headlines in Canada regarding Taliban killing/ambushing two Canadian aid workers... and threats of more attacks on Canadians if they don't go away.
(In Prince Edward Island tonight. Home by Friday)

One aspect of the killing of the French soldiers, it came right before Sarkozy arrived. They knew the focus was coming and chose the moment.
Enjoy your trip.
