Nicholas Kristof on Greg Mortenson

Nicholas Kristof has written a nice opinion piece about the value of Greg Mortenson's approach to fighting terrorism (build schools), which he then compares to the Bush Administration's approach--fire $500,000 Tomahawk missiles at Afghanistan.

The ASAH approach, of course, is also to build schools; we think one will cost about $250,000 to build, stock, and fund for 3 years. Donations are being accepted through our main website.

The NYT also ran the story of Omar Al-Bashir's arrest warrant today; a change in Sudan's government would significantly help bring about peace and stability in Sudan.
