the U.S:
- Suzanne Goldenberg interviews prominent American neo-con Richard Perle. Without a book deal, this guy isn't pointing any fingers at higher-ups (or himself, for that matter).
- Richard Byrne on how American opportunist Al Gore's signing of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 played a significant role precipitating in the very problems he rails against in The Assault on Reason.
- No Empires does not support short-sighted uses of alternative energy.
- More on the planned american embassy in Iraq
Europe:
- Gay activists recently beaten in Moscow receive another slap in the face on the BBC's Today Show, where Robert Service, a professor of Russian history at St. Antony's College spoke of his "amazement at how open and tolerant the Russian people are today, so soon after Uncle Joe's demise," and explained that while the police acted brutally, they were "not wholly out of step with popular opinion in the country."
- Michelle Goldberg on the World Congress of Families, which brought together the American Christian right with Vatican officials, leading Polish politicians, and others from across the Americas, Europe, and Africa. She describes the impact this might have not only on everything from the spread of creationism to the fate of the children's show Telletubbies.
