   The definition of negative help

   http://cdrsalamander.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ definition-of-negative-help.html

   Why national caveats are such a problem. Germany's shame.A Taliban commander with links to the killers of several British soldiers has escaped from German special forces because they were not allowed to shoot. Elite soldiers from the German KSK had been charged with capturing the terrorist.

   http://www.allthingsdemocrat.com/ 2008/ 05/ 21/ iraq-war-why-defunding-is-politi…

   One of our readers recommends this piece at Garling Gauge in reference to my post about the House of Representatives (almost exclusively Democrats voted nay) and its vote to reject the latest blank check George Bush demands to wage more war in Afghanistan and Iraq.

   ABC News: Report: U.S. Soldiers Did 'Dirty Work' for Chinese Interrogators

   http://thiscanadian.typepad.com/ this_canadian/ 2008/ 05/ abc-news-report.html

   is this a case of subcontracting by the Chinese to Americans? or Americans subcontracting to private 'services'? ... or is it another case of private contractors or secret services inserting themselves into the military Chain of Command & leaving low-ranking military to take the heat if they get caught? & why ARE they doing China's dirty work?

   Iceland most peaceful nation, US 97th

   http://www.nowpublic.com/ world/ iceland-most-peaceful-nation-us-97th-7

   These types of rankings are funny in some ways--is the 78th spot that different from the 77th?--but good for a ballpark indicator I suppose. In case you're wondering, Canada finished in the 11th spot.[q url="http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSN2032733320080520?feedType=RSS&feedName=topNews"]WASHINGTON

   Hank in the Tank, A Marine Against the Wall, Jews Against Obama, and Dark Skin

   http://roadsassy.com/ index.php/ 2008/ 05/ 21/ hank-in-the-tank-a-marine-against…

   Effluent at No Mans Blog ponders Tom Hanks being “In the Tank for Obama” …Hanks imply that it’s somehow imperative for America to elect an inexperienced one-term senator (with little to no foreign policy experience) to the office of President simply on the basis of his (black-ish) skin color? Is that what Hanks means? Because if it IS what he means, he’s a fucking lunatic.
