By now we all know about Dick Cheney's 1% Doctrine: If there's a 1 % chance that a terrorist threat can occur, we need to treat it as if it will occur. Although I personally think Dubya was trigger happy to shotgun for Iraq because Saddam had attempted an assassination on his daddy, Cheney apparently was trigger happy to shotgun for Iraq based on his self-acclaimed 1 % Doctrine. The Iraq War was essentially started as a Budweiser induced hunting trip. Read More

Christiane Amanpour's 2 hour CNN special "In the Footsteps of Bin Laden" was very good. Fortunately she spent 5 minutes or so on the Dubya Administration's blunder of not sending the requested 800 Army Rangers to get Bin Laden in Tora Bora. Read More

It does seem to me that Israel has grabbed more land than they should have with their "security wall." Many sources cite that the green line is the true recognized border, which is the 1948 UN border. Rather than re-type what I had already typed in response to another post recently, I hope you don't mind my linking below. I have linked to many wikipedia pages on the history of Palestine and the Israel/Palestine conflict. I think we could put out some of the flames of terrorist sentiment towards the United States if we were to promote this idea of setting Israel's border with Palestine to the green line, in the United Nations, and then enforcing the decision militarily if necessary (blowing up the parts of the security wall that go beyond the green line. The Palestinians have gotten the raw end of the deal all along - but at least agreeing on the 1948 UN border would reach a compromise. What do others think? Pipe dream? Click below for hyperlinks to the history of the border conflict.
