» Spiritual Felo De Se: Fealty to a Moral Abomination ­ by Jason Miller
»UN adopts resolution against N.Korea The resolution demands North Korea eliminate all its nuclear weapons but expressly rules out military action against the country ­– a demand by the Russians and Chinese.
So, the UN has stomped its feet, and told North Korea not to be a bad kid anymore: much sound and fury, signifying....not a heck of a lot.
And just how "punishing" are those "punishing sanctions" expected to be??

»Army "Big Brother" Unit Targets Bloggers  Bloggers: "Big Brother is not watching you, but 10 members of a Virginia National Guard unit might be," according to the Army. The Manassas–­based Guardsmen are on a one–­year assignment to clamp down on both "official and unofficial Army Web sites for operational security violations."
I suspect this is infinitely less about security, and much more about potential embarrasment.
»Class action suit over ID theft tossed out  A federal judge in Arkansas has thrown out a class action lawsuit against Acxiom, which exposed massive amounts of Americans' personal information in a high­profile Internet security snafu three years ago.
The message is clear; all these companies can collect any and all data on you, but if they allow it to be stolen, the courts will protect them.

» CRITICAL INQUIRY VS. CONSPIRANOIA: How wild 9/11 conspiracies undermine the left  Bill Weinberg, GNN.tv  Conspiracies exist. Watergate and the Iran-Contra scandals were conspiracies. More to the point, history reveals the contrivance of the 1964 Tonkin Gulf incident, the fabrication of Polish incursions against Germany in 1939, and the deception of the Reichstag fire in 1933 as real conspiracies. But the 9­11 buffs too frequently seem to buy into not merely conspiracies but what has been called "the conspiracy theory of history"­ the notion that an all­powerful hidden elite constitute the fundamental motor of human events. This error is evidenced in the "Essential Truth" flyer's depiction of elite conspiratorial designs as "the root causes of war and injustice." This is nearly a reversal of reality. "Root causes" have to do with political economy­the unjust social order which requires war and deception to maintain itself, and breeds terrorism. It is the conspiracies which are mere symptoms. Reversing the equation leads the conspiracists into a number of logical errors and outright deceptions (if self­deceptions) of their own.
