WOULDN'T CHANGE A WORD: THE
WOULDN'T CHANGE A WORD: THE PROSPECT ON WHY NO SEPT. 11 INQUIRY
TOOK HIM LONG ENOUGH It
TOOK HIM LONG ENOUGH
It finally is sinking into John Derbyshire's thick head that the impending U.S. war on Iraq was pretty much a fiction all along.
In other news, my prediction that the Ramallah prisoners under Anglo-American guard in Jericho would be released bloodlessly is coming true. I wish I could pick ponies this accurately... the Palestinian perfidy bookies aren't taking my money anymore...
In other little-green-news, an interesting point came up in discussion at that, still one of my favourite websites. It's this: some months ago popular gadfly Bill O'Reilly went kinda batshit on University of South Florida professor Sami Al-Arian for his support of Palestinian terrorism, ultimately costing the man his job. No tears lost here. But interestingly enough, Al-Arian's views are nothing compared to those of Marist College (N.Y.) professor Naseer Alomari, a Jordanian who believes the Jews were behind Sept. 11, suicide bombing was justified, etc. etc. He's rapidly becoming the second reason anyone had reason to know of the existence of Marist. What was the first, you ask? Why, noted alumnus Bill O'Reilly! The uncharitable explanation would be that O'Reilly's devotion to justice wanes a little when it might mean bringing his own college degree into disrepute... You just can't buy that kind of devotion to your alma mater these days...
