Hersch, "The Getaway" old Mr. Hersch's story is old news baked twice with some history and common geopolitcal opinion thrown in -- if ya read your weblogs they all rip off DEBKA all the time now nice font though and still worth reading man the New Yorker did an fantastic job bringing their print world to the web -- we say again 11:10:20 PM    Attack Outside U.S. Office in India Kills Four.
