Forgetting How War Works - A Must Read
FrontPageMagazine.com | Monday, November 12, 2007
If the West loses the current war against Islamofascism, it will be because some have lost all sense of what war really means.
Last week, in my weekly Sun Media column, I argued that it’s really not that big of a deal to make terror suspects like 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed essentially do what any kid does at Halloween when he bobs for apples – except in the presence of the CIA, and with the prize in the terrorist’s case being lifesaving information.
That column triggered an email campaign spearheaded by the Daily Kos -- the largest far-left blog in America – which appealed to the Sun’s new editor-in-chief from the Toronto Star, Canada’s largest leftist newspaper. As a result, after 2 years with the Sun and a hundred columns, my writing is now in search of a new home.

- Libya leading UN Racism Conference.
- Pigeon doo doo tied to Minneapolis bridge collapse. More at Blue Crab.
- John Edwars embracing "change" as a tenet of a presidential campaign. This just brings home the point that Edwards (and Dems) are always 'fixin' to commence to begin'. Never a plan, just knock the current program.
- Hillary Nutcracker? No comment needed.

Disaster Map
Now this is pretty cool. Somewhere this morning I saw a link to this site. (There's an English tab available.) A realtime, worldwide disaster map - what's the lastest in the last 24 hours - earthquakes, volcanos, floods, biohazard outbreaks and more.
So there.
China executed the former head of its food and drug watchdog on Tuesday for approving untested medicine in exchange for cash, the strongest signal yet from Beijing that it is serious about tackling its product safety crisis.
