George Clinton, ex president of the USA, usually publishes opinion pieces in the Italian daily "la reppublica", but this week he launched his European opinion from the French "Le Monde" whence it has now been translated to spanish and is exciting the comment of big newspapers across the continent as being a heavy weight support of a "new theory". That theory to put it most basically, is "the US & UK have gone mad". Or to use Clinton's words "we can not hide behind a wall or kill all our enemies" [the implication being that is exactly the policy wish]. Or to use the phrase I used on imc uk after the july bombings, "they entered psychosis". ... read full story / add a comment

You may approach this simple cosmic fact with awe and superstition, gasping and pointing and mkaing little wishes for world peace or higher wages or you may choose to be scientific about it and simply record time, brightness and suspected location of the drop. Its up to you. The last time the comet itself was visible was in 1992, someday that comet will collide with us but not yet. ... read full story / add a comment

High Court Asked to Take Guantanamo Case WASHINGTON - Lawyers for a Guantanamo detainee asked the Supreme Court on Monday to consider blocking military tribunals for terror suspects, and overturn what they called an extreme ruling by high court nominee John Roberts. Roberts was on a three-judge federal appeals court panel that last month ruled against Salim Ahmed Hamdan, a Yemeni who once was Osama bin Laden's driver. Hamdan's attorneys said in their filing with the justices that the appeals court had rejected long-standing constitutional and international law.
