No Fair
I have nothing arch, scathing, or funny to write about the war, the war coverage, or the protests. But, I did read this heartening editorial by Jeffrey St. Clair at CounterPunch. In which he asks, apropos all the recent brandishing of the Geneva Convention, "What does the professor of torture Alan Dershowitz have to say now?" Now that it's the US soldiers who are POWs.

The heartening part, besides the pleasure of seeing Dershowitz scorned for his defense of torture, is the part about the real resistance to the war taking place on the streets of "Cairo, Paris, New York, Madrid, London, Nablus, San Francisco..."
