President Kirchner and his Wife Cristina, look different, but they belong to the same argentinian politics family; Personally I will expect a litle bit more, to see something good inside Argentina, where the politicians are living a party, but not the common people is invited. If I could write a book the title would be The Argentinian Agreement. Respetuosly I send my advice, be alert, even, in our organization here, many of then are not at the high of this level of complexity. All my love to the AJC and the best Wishes for all of you.

As time gets closer to the conference, I'll try to organize some friends to write letters to editors, but truthfully have found it difficult to get letters on similar subjects published, let alone op eds. (I've spent five years researching Islamic history and interaction with other cultures, primarily in Spain, for a book I'm writing, but have been told by newspaper feature editors that they only accept material from established academics. My background is in journalism, years of work senior research associate at the FoI Center at the University of Missouri School of Journalism and its DC office advocating for passage of the FoI Act, and, with my husband, edited and published a refered California history magazine for 15 years -- but no academic teaching credentials, established or otherwise.) Just a thought: some years ago, Sebastian Junger did an excellent piece for Vanity Fair on that little ciudad in the heart of South America where four countries meet, basically a Lebanese commercial community that morphed into international terrorist central where the not-so-just exchange their messages and techniques. Perhaps AJC could get Junger interested in the Argentinian/Interpol affair. He may not be an academic but I suspect he could get quite a fine story on it published anywhere he wants. His research is always impeccable, and the subject would definitely motivate him. Keep up the good work.
