Where will the tsunami money end up?

In the hands of terrorists we have been trying to starve for funds. We will end up footing the bill for the next attack on US citizens by the simple mechanism of inflating death toll numbers and the media's 'Big Story' frenzy.

How damn stupid do you have to be after the Israeli's were turned away? I guess I should take solace in the fact that GW isn't letting the UN finger our money before the ragheads get it? I must give the old boy credit, though, since the usual eurosnots are decidedly miffed about his UN end run.

State of Fear

Just thought I'd put in a plug for Crichton's new book 'State of Fear'.

If you have folks around that are of the tree-hugging variety though not yet dogmatic you might encourage this read. As usual the science is well researched and presented with footnotes and references.

Oh, it's a pretty fun read, too.
