The USA's new foreign policy strategy embraces what diplomats call "pre-emptive defence" - ie; striking opponents before they can strike you. But will European leaders risk subscribing to the USA's global dominance framework? See also: Imperial PAX Americana
This question is what marks the Prague summit. The short to medium term future of millions of people will ride on the outcome. Should European rhetoric be laced with appeasement, accommodating the Bush Administration's grand-plan, innocent people, worldwide, will choke from ashes in their mouths.
On the pretext of increasing security along our northern border, federal
agents will begin stopping traffic in Michigan and questioning people whom they suspect might be terrorists. Michigan is the first northern state in which these checkpoints have been instituted.

Everyone is welcome regardless of their faith (or lack thereof).
The Pentagon is constructing a computer system that could create a vast electronic dragnet, searching for personal information as part of the hunt for terrorists around the globe — including the United States. As the director of the effort, Vice Adm. John M. Poindexter, has described the system in Pentagon documents and in speeches, it will provide intelligence analysts and law enforcement officials with instant access to information from Internet mail and calling records to credit card and banking transactions and travel documents, without a search warrant.

the daily poetry movement. this piece is entitled "the black art". It is by Anne Sexton. Anne Sexton, at one point in her life, travelled the country while reading her poetry to a travelling jazz band (they toured together). Her poetry is written in a confessional style.

There are folders on your computer that Microsoft has tried hard to keep secret. Within these folders you will find two major things: Microsoft Internet Explorer has not been clearing your browsing history after you have instructed it to do so, and Microsoft's Outlook Express has not been deleting your e-mail correspondence after you've erased them from your Deleted Items bin. (This also includes all incoming and outgoing file attachments.) And believe me, that's not even the half of it.

An Anglo-American war against Iraq, he tells me, could be the opening salvo in the break up of the region. Galloway, who met with Saddam Hussein in Baghdad this August, states that the war aims of the US and Britain go well beyond replacing the Iraqi leader. "They include a recasting of the entire Middle East, the better to ensure the hegemony of the big powers over the natural resources of the Middle East and the safety and security of the vanguard of imperialist interests in the area - the state of Israel. And part of that is actually redrawing boundaries."
