    Washington Post ^ | 14 Sept 03 | Book Review by Peter Hitchens
    Excerpts from - Grand Designs 'Imperial America: The Bush Assault on the World Order' by John Newhouse Reviewed by Peter Hitchens "John Newhouse makes a brave attempt to explain and understand how this happened, how a president devoid of curiosity about the world, allied with some leathery old pseudoconservatives in search of an enemy whose evil would emphasize their virtue, attacked and invaded a country that was no threat to the United States and that nobody now knows how to manage. This useful book is packed with compelling little details showing just how many wise and experienced people warned others...

    Excerpt: many Americans take pleasure in "kicking ass," and they do not much care whose ass is being kicked or why. So long as Americans are dishing out death and destruction to a plausible foreign enemy, the red-white-and-blue jingos are happy. Visit a barbershop, stand in line at the post office or have a drink at your neighborhood tavern and listen to the conversations going on around you. The sheer bellicosity of many ordinary people is as undeniable as it is shocking... -------------------------------------- further excerpts: ...In view of the evident futility, and worse, of nearly every war the United States...

    Last week, many people asked, How could the mainstream press, and punditry, have gotten the Sami al-Arian case so wrong? How could they have been so far off-base? Remember, al-Arian was the Florida professor accused of being a terrorist ringleader. (I sort of like the similarity of his name to “Aryan.”) He was finally arrested last week; the indictment against him is devastating (not only of al-Arian, but of his defenders and apologists). Many in the press — most notably New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof — had rallied around al-Arian, claiming that he was being harassed because he was...

    Key quote: "I don't believe in [Edwards]," Hitchens tells Doublethink interviewer Tom Ivancie. "I mean, I told him I wouldn't vote for him. . . . Because I'd vote for Bush. The important thing is this: Is a candidate completely serious about prosecuting the war on theocratic terrorism to the fullest extent? Only Bush is."

    AlterNet.org ^ | November 20, 2002 | By Michael Moore, Donahue
    At the hometown premiere for Michael Moore's new movie, "Bowling for Columbine", Phil Donahue spoke to Michael in front of a live audience in Showcase Cinema West movie theater in Flint, Michigan. The film has already received an incredible response. It was the first documentary ever accepted at Cannes Film Festival in 46 years, it received a 13-minute standing ovation from the audience in Cannes, and was unanimously awarded the Cannes 55th anniversary Jury Prize award. Moore's past work, "Roger and Me", became the highest grossing documentary of all time. He is also the author of two "New York Times"...

    MIAMI -- A Muslim group on Sunday asked Gov. Jeb Bush to provide leadership in the investigation of a doctor suspected of plotting to blow up dozens of mosques and an Islamic education center. Altaf Ali, executive director of the state chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, also asked that the state provide security at mosques until the threat of more attacks has passed. "We are really concerned about the safety of our children and the individuals that attend the mosques in Florida," Ali said. Robert J. Goldstein, 37, was arrested Friday and charged with possession of a non-registered...
