Today, a small bomb went off outside Upper East Side Starbucks. Last week, there were four arrested for trying to blow up a synagogue in the Bronx.What is too easy to forget, from over here, is that these things can instill genuine fear in the people who are nearby - a sense of "Oh God that could've been me".It appears that the politics of fear are returning to the US and the arch deacon of all

if you listen to Hilary Clinton's exact words, in this recent kerfuffle, she says.."between my opponent.. and some in the media there has been this.. urgency to end this, and [y'know] historically that makes no sense... again I've been around long enough. My husband did not wrap up [his nomination] till June.. we all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June.."Maybe. Just maybe, she's

Some folks may not realise this but the Administration is currently demanding that Congress pass an unconstitutional law to try to get retroactive legal cover Telecoms violations under FISA law both after and before 9/11.According to Barbara Honnegger,It is primarily President Bush Bush, not the IT companies, who is pushing for retroactive immunity. The carriers have told Congressional

I know there are hundreds, if not, literally, hundreds of millions of folks in the States and worldwide that are literally terrified as what might happen if our/their mad dictator finally does go off the deep end and actually 'use nuclear weapons' in the Iran/Middle East 'arena' if you will.But how do you suppose the actual everyday Iranians feel about it?

UPDATE: Still here. Thank the all.So, appparently.. the story goes like this.August 30 the USAF 'lost' 5 nuculear weapons whilst being transported from Minot AFB to Barksdale AFB.The story from the Barksdale end was that 5 weapons were 'found' but it was later reported from the Minot AFB end that 6 weapons were lost.Apprently in 1991, by Presidential order (under Bush Sr.), nuclear weapons were

OK so here’s a theory – actually on further consideration its basically bunk but I'll lave it for you to consider… I'm still working on a new 'not crap' version...So let’s start off with the fact that this recent ‘surge’ thing makes absolutely no sense.

Rummy.. is taking on Bush (and Bush senior over the war). He's saying. I'm sure that the people are behind me. I know they are absolutely behind us, we can "stay" the course for at least another year or three. Bush (sorry, I mean Condi) is like "how can you honestly believe that? your self delusions are getting the better of you" and Rummys like.. "I'll prove it to you". You watch.. call off the

A friend points to aadvarks recent commentary about the future of computing and asks "So any opinions on whether we will see new technology based computers soon, or not for quite some time?"This set off the following scree. Bit incoherent but noone reads this blog anyway so whats the harm..Really fascinating stuff. I'm sure its a good 10 years out before we even start to see this kind of thing

The timing for this is certainly suspicious. Just when the administration was starting to get into serious trouble over Habeus Corpus, Torture, and more and more 911 revelations.. Foley Gate comes along with all number of salacious and distracting details. Classic Rovian tactics.All I wanna know is - where did the IM's come from? Who pulled them in the first place. Was it.1.

OK lets just start out by assuming that he's going to, probably, be lying. Now, now, I'll admit that doesn't sound very 'bi partisan' of me to say that - but at this point I think you'd have to be a fool not to be at least 'very' suspicious of the motives behind everything George W Bush and his crew do.So.. lets just assume right off the bat that when he says that his new initiatives are focused

________________________________Some points you might choose to make, in your own words [sic] of course:- 9/11 was the pretext for two wars and a transformation of the country. Trillions of dollars were shifted from butter to guns. It's all based on the idea that foreign terrorists are the primary threat to our security.

It's really unfortunate that it is the name "google' that is showing up in all the headlines in connection to Chinese censorship.... because the only reason it is news is that it is strikingly*different* from the way that google normally behaves.Microsoft and Yahoo for example had already caved in (if thats the word for it) months ago to the Chinese demands for censoring chineselanguage search

This is truly awful.Some seemingly brilliant but obviously very conflicted guy decides to commit suicide and posts the fact on his blog and on Joel Spolsky’s website. The net result? He becomes semi-famous (for an internet split second) and I find myself reading through his blog with a mixture of horror and fascination and come across some links that seem interesting and relevant enough to post..

I think you're (all of you!) missing something important about the current elites. The capitalist elite stands virtually unchallenged across the globe, and if there is one thing Elites have learnt through the ages its that destablization and unrest is *bad*, calmness and status quo is good. That is, by definition of those who are in power right now the goal is to *prolong* the status quo and

I love PGP and think more people should use it more of the time. The main reason I think this, is because the more people use PGP the harder it will be for systems like ECHELON to organize/filter/categorize the content that they filter.

Once they were building this new college, see. And it came time to figure out where they were going to put the sidewalks. You see, they didn't want the stupid students to ravage the nice grass, so they wanted to place the sidewalks just right. They thought about how to do this, and thought and thought, and had an idea.

The world, Bush said, is now riven by "the clearest of divides: between those who seek order and those who spread chaos; between those who work for peaceful change and those who adopt the methods of gangsters; between those who honor the rights of man and those who deliberately take the lives of men and women and children without mercy or shame. Between these alternatives there is no neutral

Yaay. So I was finally gonna get off my butt and donate some money to one of those damn candidates. But guess what – great news - turns out I can’t ... As I can't answer yes to the following question: " I am not a foreign national who lacks permanent residence in the United States.". Ahh.. mores' the pity eh. PS. Kucinich's donation web-site lacks a little bit in the area of 'spiff' mores the

Let me state for the record, that of all the outlandish, far out, wild and unbelievable conspiracy theories, I have heard, I happen to think that the roswell rods thing holds more water than you would imagine at first glance. Let me get it clear though, I have no reason to believe this involves aliens. What makes a *lot* more sense - given that many of these 'sightings' are in the vicinity of

Hmmm.. Its interesting that yesterday they were reporting that a suspect had been detained for two months for *posessing information about Guantanamo bay* and now there are reports that he is being accused of passing information to Syrian nationals. Suddenly a story, involving a chaplain and an air force commander *having* information about who was at Guantanamo bay (ie something that might, just

Quote from Bush's recent speech to the UN General Assembly: Events during the past two years have set before us the clearest of divides: Between those who seek order and those who spread chaos; between those who work for peaceful change and those who adopt the methods of gangsters; between those who honor the rights of man and those who deliberately take the lives of men and women and children,

The British East India Company, for instance, created a trade monopoly and colonized India. Opium War (1840-1842): A war started by England against China's Qing dynasty because of

As far as I can tell, this stuff goes all the way back to Julius Caesar: sidelining of the democractic process, abrogation of the constitution, institution of permanent war. Does any of this ring a bell ? How about violation of the Geneva convention, or the scapegoating and persecution of a minority group? We should know this stuff by now ! I mean. Hitler. Pinochet. World War II... 1984. A

A fair amount of rubble must needs carrying out,I guess, and so the brooklyn bridge has been taking quite a beating of late,I mean, one of those big sixteen wheelers comes thunderingover the spans, and wham ! hits that lip, whatever it is.. booom ! off it goes.
