More crap
Ex-CIA director John Woolsey set to profit from war on terror.
More jobs for the boys, joining such luminaries as George Shultz (Bechtel), Richard Perle (Trireme) and Dick Cheney (Halliburton - our boy is still getting pension payments, remember?). Then there's ex-executives of major military contractors like undersecretary of the Air Force and NRO director Richard Teets (Lockheed), Secretary of the Air Force James Roche (Northtrop Grumman) and Former Secretary of the Navy (now Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security) Gordon England (General Dynamics). Funny how the people making decisions as to who to contract to for the military would be the same people who used to run the companies that get awarded the contracts.
British made tanks up against Indonesian rebels.
So much for Labour and the peace process. Meet New Labour - same as the Old Conservatives. When money flows, so do the arms and to hell with an ethical foreign policy.
Powell thinks we can get started on Mid-East roadmap after meeting with Palestinian leadership.
Sorry, Colin. Think again. There shall be no peace as long as Sharon lives.

He's hardly the only obstacle to peace. Hell, he's hardly even the only Israeli obstacle to peace.

Sadly, peace in the middle east will not happen in this generation, and perhaps not in the next either. The roots of hatred are deep, and until that changes there can be no lasting peace. When things like incitement to violence on children's television stop, then I'll pay more attention.
