* "Mexico al-Qa'ida 'back door' to US: 25 Chechen terrorism suspects have illegally entered the US from Mexico... The FBI and CIA, however, are apparently very interested, especially after intelligence reported that a key lieutenant to Osama bin Laden, Adnan El Shukrijumah, was seen in Honduras and northern Mexico in recent months." yadayada - this is an echo of that stoopid washtimes article. http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,11085315%255E2703,00.html

* btw - everyones doing the immigration scare thingy. cnn and time are both doing big pieces. (the promo for cnns 30min thing this weekend is disgusting)

* the beeb is reporting that 17 amtroops refused to go on a mission. woohoo! cnn hasnt mentioned it... http://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=domesticNews&storyID=6517912 it looks like the media handlers are very cautious about this one...

* btw - heres that story on AP's 'testrun' story that gave 43 the election http://www.boingboing.net/2004/10/07/tv_station_reports_t.html

* " A federal panel of medical experts studying illnesses among veterans of the 1991 war in the Persian Gulf has broken with several earlier studies and concluded that many suffer from neurological damage caused by exposure to toxic chemicals, rejecting past findings that the ailments resulted mostly from wartime stress.... about one in seven, suffer war-related health problems." get your draft on. http://nytimes.com/2004/10/15/politics/15gulf.html?pagewanted=all&position=

* i wonder if we'll hear from larryflynt


* "The White House told the New York Times that the president was not wearing a bulletproof vest. But this could just be a standard denial, part of keeping the president secure." i love this logic that is being thrown around in the isbushwired thing. telling people that he is vulnerable keeps him safe. http://www.salon.com/tech/feature/2004/10/15/wired/print.html
