A shocking article contributing by LJ about the $43 million dollars given to the Taliban by the Bush Administration 4 short months ago. I am really hoping that this tragedy causes some major shakeups in international politics and humanism. What is more important - ‘retribution’ or some measures that will actually prevent such horrific events recurring?

More attack-related info from the web:

• The Counterterrorist Myth: A former CIA operative explains why the terrorist Osama bin Ladin has little to fear from American intelligence - very interesting.
• Eerily prescient album cover: This album was apparently scheduled for release this week but has now been pulled while they desperately redesign it!
• Blowback: A 1996 article about how the CIA aided fundamentalist groups in Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion.

In Jems news, today is Jan’s last day at work! Congratulations Jan.
