Bush "Victory" ad infringes on reality,

A sunny new Bush-Cheney campaign ad touting the participation of two new free and democratic countries at the Olympic games in Athens -- Iraq and Afghanistan -- is more than just ironic, given the fighting that is raging in Najaf and the bombs that are going off at voter registration centers in Afghanistan. The ad also skirts the bounds of legality.

Documentation of the routine use of
torture as Bush Administration policy,
or how we lost the war on terrorism

Documentation of the routine use of
torture as Bush Administration policy,
or how we lost the war on terrorism 06/12/2004 12:01 AM
Human Rights Watch has issued a chilling report documenting how George W. Bush has turned the United States into a nation that uses regularly tortures and "disappears" people. As the summary says: In fact, the only exceptional aspect of the abuse at Abu Ghraib may have been that it was photographed. Detainees in U.S. custody in Afghanistan have testified that they experienced treatment similar to what happened in Abu Ghraib -- from beatings to prolonged sleep and sensory deprivation to being held naked -- as early as 2002. Comparable -- and, indeed, more extreme -- cases of torture and inhuman treatment have been extensively documented by the International Committee of the Red Cross and by journalists at numerous locations in Iraq outside Abu Ghraib. This pattern of abuse did not result from the acts of individual soldiers who broke the rules. It resulted from decisions made by the Bush administration to bend, ignore, or cast rules aside.... Among the most disturbing cases, perhaps unprecedented in U.S. history, are the detainees who have simply been "disappeared." Perhaps out of concern that Guantánamo will eventually be monitored by the U.S. courts, certainly to ensure even greater secrecy, the Bush administration does not appear to hold its most sensitive and high-profile detainees there. Terrorism suspects like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, accused architect of the September 11 attacks, and Abu Zubaydah, a close aide of Osama bin Laden, are detained by the United States instead in "undisclosed locations," presumably outside the United States, with no access to the ICRC, no notification to families, no oversight of any sort of their treatment, and in most cases no acknowledgement that they are even being held. Human Rights Watch has pieced together information on 13 such detainees, apprehended in places such as Pakistan, Indonesia, Thailand, Morocco, and the United Arab Emirates, who have "disappeared" in U.S. custody... the administration is now finding that it may be losing the war for hearts and minds around the world precisely because it threw those rules out. Rather than advance the war on terror, the widespread prisoner abuse has damaged efforts to build global support for countering terrorism. Indeed, each new photo of an American soldier humiliating an Iraqi could be considered a recruiting poster for al-Qaeda. Policies adopted to make the United States more secure from terrorism have in fact made it more vulnerable. I couldn't say it any better myself...

Next Gen Terrorism: Sun Tzu

Next Gen Terrorism: Sun Tzu 01/07/2004 06:28 PM
Invincibility is in oneself, and vulnerability is in the opponent.  Invincibility is a matter of defense, vulnerability is a matter of attack. Therefore skillful warriors are able to be invincible, but they cannot cause opponents to be vulnerable.  That is why it is said that victory is discerned and not manufactured.  Sun Tzu. This is precisely why the West is having such a hard time with global terrorist organizations.  The network-centric organizational topology and stateless nature of terrorists make them nearly invulnerable (we find it extremely hard to determine where to send the bombs).  In contrast, the nature of our networked economy presents a myriad of vulnerabilities by design.

I beat Xenosaga tonight. It had a fantastic ending. When the words To Be Continued appeared on my TV, I really really wanted Episode II. I hope those folks at Monolith get the sequel done quickly. :)

I have moved on to Freelancer, which is decidedly unimpressive so far. I think it will get a bit more interesting once I actually have a ship with decent weapons and other gadgets (like mines and countermeasures), so I'm withholding judgment until I've played a while longer.

The other game that I'm about 60% of the way through is Metroid Prime. I wish those damn GameCube controllers didn't hurt my hands so much, or I'd have been done with that game by now.

Still in the queue is Splinter Cell for my XBox. I have sadly neglected the game completely, despite having heard wonderful things about it.

And I need to get back and finish GTA:Vice City on the PS2 and Buffy on the XBox. So many games, so little time. Sigh.

'Winning' Against Terrorism

'Winning' Against Terrorism 08/31/2004 09:24 AM

NY TImes: Bush Cites Doubt America Can Win War on Terror. "I don't think you can win it," Mr. Bush replied. "But I think you can create conditions so that those who use terror as a tool are less acceptable in parts of the world."

This is a welcome dose of reality, and it's about time Bush offered it. But his statement raises a couple of questions. Such as: If the war can't be won, will America remain "at war" permanently? Will we be wrecking domestic civil liberties and launching unilateral wars abroad for the forseeable future? The people who approved of the administration's Bill of Rights said we do these things temporarily in wartime, but then revert to more normal times. Are those so-called "normal" times gone now forever, by definition? There will always be bad guys with warped causes who can and will try to cause disproportionate damage. Are we therefore going to try to reduce risk by permanently taking away liberty? The Democrats' response to Bush, incidentally, was mostly ridiculous. Kerry said we can "absolutely" win the war on terrorism, which he surely knows to be false. Edwards, making a similar statement, said the Democrats have a better plan to change the underlying conditions from which terrorists emerge -- and I don't doubt that's true. But this would have been a useful time for Kerry and Edwards to be a little less partisan and show a little more common sense.

Why We Are Losing The War on Terrorism

Why We Are Losing The War on Terrorism 05/03/2004 10:45 AM
CACI, a private military company that provides security and intelligence workers to the US military (including interrogators at the Abu Ghraib prison), is conducting a probe of their employee in Iraq.  I had a look at CACIs site and was a little disturbed by what I found (they have pulled many of their listings for employment last night -- so I can't link).  The only qualifications for a senior counter-terrorist intelligence analyst, one that the US military pays well over one hundred thousand $$ for (my estimate based on experience in military contacting), is a high school diploma and a security clearance.Is a security clearance the most important qualification for being an analyst??? This isn't an isolated instance, my review of the field shows that problems like this are rampant (low pay, limited qualifications, etc.).

Fighting terrorism is 90% intelligence and 10% action (a total reversal of traditional ratios).  If this is the best our government can do, we are in for a world of hurt.

We desperately need adult supervision and high quality minds in the intelligence business!  I am growing more convince that the security clearance process, the government hiring/promotion process, and information silos are overwhelming our ability to get even a marginally adequate level of intelligence needed to fight terrorism.  Wow, this is depressing.

My confident belief (100%):  we will continue to lose the war on terrorism until we fix our intelligence system.

My colleague Jason Schultz has blogged some pithy remarks about the head of WIPO's comparison of copyright infringement to terrorism. God, how I hate the comparison of all things to terrorism, it's such shoddy rhetoric. Really: if copyright infringement is like terrorism, does that mean that our first line of defense against illicit music downloading shoud be the systematic confiscation of nailfiles and scissors from business travellers?

Mr Idris described how he had heard of children dying after using counterfeit baby shampoo and warned of the potentially disastrous consequences of relying on machines that had been made using an illicitly duplicated model.

Excuse me, but those aren't intellectual property/piracy problems. False advertising is a consumer protection issue and a problem that everyone supports eradicating...

However, there have been several documented instances where WIPO's own high protectionist patent and data registration policies are actively hurting patient access to AIDS-related drugs and other essential medicines in the third world, Africa in particular...
