Node Of Evil - Fair And Balanced Reporting

For those who feel the war on terrorism
could use a little "Structural Adjustment".

Hey all, here's something that's vitally important -- the U.N. aid program in Palestine is close to running out of funds. Please take a minute to donate something to help the Palestinian refugees. You can donate here. More information about the program can be found here.

We're here to welcome all who disagree with, or generally dislike, any aspect of the war on terrorism with open arms! Declare yourself an enemy of the state - join the Node Of Evil.

Quickie: A couple of sources (ours came in the form of an email, the only online version we've found is from the UPI...) are claiming that the U.S. has captured Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi. We rate this as about 30% true. We don't think that, if this is true, it will spell the end for the war in Iraq. The capture of Hussein served to deflate any question about whether or not the insurgency would continue without him. So, too, do we believe that if Zarqawi has been captured the insurgency won't end. Nevertheless, he has done much harm both to U.S. troops and Iraqi citizens and we hope this news is true. We also hope that this leads to more effective intelligence operations in Iraq, an area where U.S. efforts have consistently fallen short of what's required to make headway against the insurgency/terrorists/whatever the flavor of the month for this rather loosely bound and disparate group of people is. I tend more towards the many people/many motives theory of the war -- there are many people fighting against the U.S. presence in Iraq and they have many motives.
