SECURITY MAP AND TIMELINE

If you want to keep track of all the palestinian attacks against Israelis, Israel Insider has a fantastic security incidents map and timeline. After playing with this for a while, you really get a feel for the extent to which the palestinians have violated the so-called hudna.

DRIVING SADDAM INSANE The US army have a new method for finding Saddam loyalists and ultimately catching the man himself - good old fashioned taunting! In a campaign set to start on Monday, U.S. forces plan to put up posters around Saddam's hometown of Tikrit showing his face superimposed on Hollywood heroines and other stars in an attempt to enrage his followers and draw them out. As well as Saddam dolled up as a slinky Zsa Zsa Gabor, there is a busty Rita Hayworth Saddam, a grooving Elvis Saddam and even Saddam in the guise of British-born rocker Billy Idol.

This has led to much anxi...

MICHAEL JORDAN AND THE PLO ARABS I just read about this today, although it happened a year ago. I am shocked to say the least. Basketball superstar Michael Jordan, who recently announced that he will return for a second season with the Washington Wizards, has decided to display solidarity with a variety of causes by wearing a black armband during games. After discussing his new season with the Wizards at a press conference, Jordan was asked about the significance of the black armband he had been spotted wearing. "It's in the tradition of silent but visible protest," Jordan said, "like the Tinker kids, Tommie Smith, and John Carlos." Jordan was referring to the famous Tinker v. Des Moines free-speech case in which two high school students won the right to wear black armbands in school as a protest against the Vietnam war, as well as the two Black U.S. athletes who gave the Black Power salute during the 1968 Olympics. When pressed by reporters to ex...
