does this bother anyone?

How is it we could invade a country like Iraq, but do nothing about other areas of the world where perhaps arguably we have atrocities happening on an even higher level? While the argument has been made that terrorists were supported in Iraq the truth is that terrorism is given its support by other countries with more religious natures. Let me be more explicit about this for a moment. An invasion of Afghanistan or pressure on Saudi Arabia (who might have made a mistake when it said the religious clerics could be in charge of education--duhh!) , perhaps even an argument could be made that terrorism could best be handled by eliminating the causes of terrorism. Just a thought--but erhaps we could really address the endemic causes of religious strife, borders enacted under colonial rule, or even GASP, the palestenian Israeli conflict. My hat is off to the current Israeli leader for trying to handl,e the situation. Let me know what you think.

3/19/04 -- Federal Rules for TeachersAre Relaxed -- Education Week

I don't know about anyone else but I feel more relaxed already. It's not the overcrowded classrooms, lack of textbooks, lack of computers, lack of copying and other supplies. Don't those things lower the acheivement of our kids?
