Science
Technology has always found its greatest consumer in a
nation's war and defense efforts. Since the last attempts at a
"Star Wars" defense system, has technology changed
considerably enough to make the latest Missile Defense
initiatives more successful? Can such an application of
science be successful? Is a militarized space inevitable,
necessary or impossible?

Cupid's Valentine War
Mr Powell, is expected to reveal further intelligence on
the link at a climactic meeting of the security council. The
meeting would be followed on February 14 by possibly the last
assessment of Iraqi compliance.
Bush said that US intelligence had discovered extensive
links between Iraq and terrorist organisations including
al-Qaida.

Thinking About Iraq (3) By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN
emo to: President Bush From: A pro-American Arab leader
Dear Mr. President, I and my colleagues from the Arab world
and Turkey share your view that Saddam Hussein is lying, has
not complied with the U.N. and must go. But is an American
invasion the only way to remove him? Would you consider a deal
for his exile?
I ask because we have been getting mixed signals. http://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/29/opinion/29FRIE.html

US President George W Bush says fresh evidence will be
handed to the United Nations next week about Iraq's weapons
program, vowing to lead a military campaign if the Iraqis do
not disarm.
In his State of the Union address to Congress, Mr Bush says
Baghdad has shown contempt
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2003/01/item20030129094116_1.htm
"" Mr. Aziz also said that Iraq's aggression will be
directed at neighbouring Kuwait, where US troops are based.
That has fuelled concerns that Kuwait will be targeted by
chemical or biological weapons.

Principle
A third grader could have made a better speech than Smirk:
"Bush Delivers State of the War Speech. Was That Karl Rove
in the Background Saying, "We're Going to Run This War Thing
Out Until 2004. Who's the Next Target, Maybe a Blue State?"
Did Bush Say, "The State of Our Confederacy, I Mean Union, is
Strong"? "

Arab States - Repression - Cruelty - Inhumanity
How would a move on Iraq install 'democracy' over a culture
that, for two thousand years, has been based on repression?

BOB ELLIS: "The speech was brilliant and written by
brilliant tactical and eloquent speech writers and it ranks
very high, even with the speeches of the Kennedys.
Its purpose is abominable."

GU TALK rich1969 - 12:30pm Jan 29, 2003 GMT (#61 of 91)
I thought the hateful, narrow, nationalistic tone was awful
(but not unexpected.)
I thought it was severely a-historical. This situation did
not begin on September 11 2001, but can be dated back to
anti-Soviet cold war black-ops (at least).
Congress reminded me of the Soviet Politburo. I lost count
of the number of times they rose in applause. We witnessed a
radical blurring of - if not an outright fusion of the
Legislative and Executive branches of American government.

I hate all the applause interruptions. It was certainly
unnecessary -more like a Castro speech to his psycophants in
the National Assembly.
I hope Congress next year behave with more gravitas;
however, there were some issues I would stand up and applaud:
the money to help Africa, the money to alternative fuel.
