I refer to the news that Ken Bigley was murdered by those who had kidnapped him.

This is my opinion:

Terrorism will go on. The "War against Terrorism" will NOT be won by - to quote Kerry - more of the same.

I think this whole charade is very unfortunate, especially for all those victims of this cycle of violence.

That administration need a change of approach. Now. The Guantanamo prisoners is just One (well-known) example of an area that needs review by US politicians.

I just read this commentary at Human Rights Watch.

I wondered what Exactly happened that helped spur Darfur to the attention of the global media... I guess it was a mixture of things.
