by now, i suppose almost everyone has read this Intel-Dump post, “National Insecurity”, on how dire our national security situation has become. more interesting than the article, though, are the comments. the whole tread is fascinting… (crooked timber labels the event ”Like Pasting feathers together and hoping for a duck”) the commenter (Diogenes) is eventually reduced by the force of facts to support the iraq war with a defense of torture. yeah. brilliant.
