LILEKS HAS BEEN WARBLOGGING. Here’s my favorite bit:
3:10 PM NPR is interviewing a Saudi editor, who warns us that the average Saudi – who of course holds Saddam in contempt as a brutal butcher – will nevertheless be very angry if America kills fifty Iraqis and continues to block UN resolutions on Israel. I say when this war is over we couple the issue of Palestinian rights with Saudi women’s rights. Self-determination for everyone. The Pals get autonomy; Saudi women get driver’s licenses. Agreed?
Heh. Read it all, and don’t miss this:
5:17 PM News report: Hans Blix admits that he would have never have found all the WMD. Thanks, Hans. Much obliged. I’m guessing that he was paid by the week, not by the discovery; if we’d given him a bonus for Finding Stuff, and the bonus exceeded what he would have made in a year of desultory squinting, we might have had the material breach in week one.
Indeed.
