New entries at ForTheDream(warning: anti-war and anti-use-of-Islam to describe our enemies), and LongHairedWeirdo. I went on a bit of a writing binge tonight.

That first one reminds me: You should listen to this (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5701631). A really interesting NPR interview with Tom Ricks, a reporter for the Washington Post and author of the book Fiasco, about the difference between strategy and tactics when it comes to fighting a war, and how the mismatch between the two has contributed to the quagmire in Iraq.

Ricks, BTW, thinks we could well be in Iraq for 15 years or longer...

He's really the most coherent writer about Iraq I've heard speak. I find him depressing as hell (my brother leaves for Iraq next month), but cogent.
