Farm Aid, Pt. 2
When not busy destroying Iraq's orchards, the U.S. government finds time to shoot and poison Latin American farmers. Thomas Jefferson's obsession with agrarianism may not have been pure sentimentality, after all. Having regulated and subsidized America's small farms...
Fact of the Day
I am not sure the Black Flag (teenage anarchists) knows that their standard "upside down flag" has real meaning: * United States Code (The Collected Laws of the United States) Title 4, Chapter 1 - The Flag Sec. 8. Respect for flag SubSec. (a) The flag should never be...
Now That Mother Theresa Has Been Beatified
The U.S. military must stay in Kosovo to sort out her ethnicity, argues Stephen Schwartz.
The Gregg Easterbrook Affair

Faster, Harder, Bigger
Great God almighty, what the hell is wrong with Michael Ledeen? For some time now, he's been ending almost every essay at National Review with the phrase "Faster, please." It's like a porn spammer's version of "Carthago Delenda Est," and from a guy whose e-mail...

Some Palestinian kids ( Jonah Goldberg calls them "teens," but that's not specified in the article he linked) set fire to the tomb of Joseph in retaliation for their Israeli-imposed house arrest. Shame on them. Thank goodness those historic-preservationists and...
Farm Aid
Lt. Col. (ret.) Karen Kwiatkowski on farm policy in Iraq: Orchard bulldozing is part of "a new policy of collective punishment of farmers who do not give information about guerrillas attacking U.S. troops." Is it really a U.S. policy? I might credit this designation...
Hot Damn!
An Alternet columnist evinces a bit of skepticism about the American welfare empire! Tell it, sister: What can we, in America, know of how it feels to be a citizen of any other country in the world? We do not have brigades of well-meaning volunteers from, say, the...
