The European Crisis
 A freebie from Stratfor(Tm) - well, I can't afford the paying ones... plus, I've got RB... -, about the ramifications of the TCE vote in France, with some good points, at least from a non-european perspective; no link since it came by mail.France will vote on the new draft European constitution May 29. All 25 EU members must ratify the constitution if it is to take effect. The odds of that happening are pretty slim under any circumstances. However, at the moment it appears that the referendum in France might fail. Whether it actually does is less significant than the fact that France is the engine behind European unification -- and if ratification of the constitution in France is in doubt, it is difficult to imagine how it could possibly pass in many other European countries.
