Reuters: "Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld could be criminally liable for the torture of a detainee at Guantanamo Bay in late 2002 and early 2003, Human Rights Watch said."
Yahoo: "The fortress-like compound rising beside the Tigris River here will be the largest of its kind in the world, the size of Vatican City, with the population of a small town, its own defense force, self-contained power and water, and a precarious perch at the heart of Iraq's turbulent future.
The new U.S. Embassy also seems as cloaked in secrecy as the ministate in Rome."
Rummy is probably including a torture wing in the embassy compound and making sure the heli pad is large enough to evacuate thousands of people when the final defeat comes (remember Vietnam).

LATimes: "The U.S. Supreme Court ruling that local governments could seize private property and hand it over to developers has set off a landslide of legislation in statehouses around the country.
Since the court expanded the definition of eminent domain in June in Kelo vs. City of New London, lawmakers in 47 states have introduced more than 325 measures to protect private property."
In the meantime the big shots are earning big money and getting huge retirement packages.

It seems God was invented by right-wing neocons. At least, the latter-day neocons have recreated God in their own image.
The Lost Gospel is pouring some oil on Dan Brown's flimsy fiction.
But one thing that is for sure is that the right-wingers have hijacked God.
Maybe their God is the God who wasn't there at all.
