1. putins kidding right! i love it that he didnt warn anyone of the announcement.
(Reuters) - Russia warned the United States after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks that Iraq's Saddam Hussein ( ) planned to hit targets on U.S. soil, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday.

2. as far as i can tell, cheney effectivly didnt testify at 911comm - apart from helping 43 finish sentences.

3. the saudi thing(s) seems entirely constructed. the implications are scary. remember, rumsfled pulled the troops outta saudi not so long ago in what seemed like an odd move. 'alq of the arabian peninsula' sounds like the cia. nice to see a white-looking trrist with short-sleeves against the red background. a tip o the hat to the berg video.

4. the fallujah air attack looks pretty stupid. unfortuantely they missed zarq. again.

5. i can only assume that the cheney/iraq/obl/bush comments are a smokescreen.

6. heres a helpful nytimes headline "Panel Says Chaos in Administration Was Wide on 9/11" http://www.nytimes.com/2004/06/18/politics/18PANE.htm

7. apparently on 911 rice was in the bunker with cheney in the morning. (i mite be wrong but) i thought she was in texas with the pres and card and ari1? (oh ari1, how we miss u. oh ari3, how perfectly evil you are). the whole business about 43 having to use his cell phone has the triffic result that theres no record of his call. i wonder if they subpoenad his cellphone records.

8. "John Kerry, Political Placebo" is a funny title, for some reason. http://www.counterpunch.org/chuckman06152004.html

9. how bout dem 7 bad apples?

10. everything should all be better by the end of the week
