Iraq inspectors: No weapons found

Iraq inspectors: No weapons found



 ”The United Nations’ nuclear inspectors will deliver a serious blow on Monday to Washington’s case for going to war with Iraq, telling the world they have found nothing and giving Saddam Hussein good grades for cooperation.


Just as damaging to the US position will be the insistence to the UN security council by the chief nuclear inspector, Mohamed El Baradei, that his team needs several more months to complete its work and that some important testing equipment has only just arrived in the country. “

Join the fun! Spread it widely!


And check out No War Blog, it’s a collaborative effort by several dozen blogs - including Polizeros - from Left, Right, and Libertarian viewpoints who are opposed to an Iraq War.

PsyTrance

PsyTrance


Ok, so I’m burning my own CD’s now (yes, I’m way late to the party on this one) often with music from MP3.com.


Of course I would never dream of downloading music using Kazaa (warning: may contain spyware) or BearShare (open source) because, darn it, that would be wrong.


I like Techno / Trance, especially what MP3.com calls PsyTrance, like AlienSXX and Neurotron 606.


If you know of other sites with music like this, let me know in the Comments below. Thanks!

Fiendish weaponry…

Fiendish weaponry…


From the always excellent Daily Kos



“Nothing better than to wake up to than this.



A senior U.S. Central Command official will provide a background briefing regarding Iraq’s potential use of oil as a terror weapon.


Sounds like an Onion article, doesn’t it?


Reader BZ, who brought this beauty to my attention, summed it up perfectly:


    What’s next? Sand as WMD?”


Join in the fun, and add your comments speculating about what other fiendish WMD Iraq may have. Persian rugs, sharp objects, and air all appear likely candidates.
