Ketchum contract, the apparent fraudulence of which is roughly
parallel to the memos in the Dan Rather case."

10/29/2003 12:10 AMI'm a 27-year-old programmer. When I'm 55--in 2031--I want to
still be a programmer. And in 2031, I want to love my job as much
as I
do today. What will 2031 look like? Right now, two groups are
offering their visions for the future: Microsoft and the open
source
movement. A third group is conspicuously silent: small,
independent
developers. What do the Microsoft and open source futures look
like?
Will the independent developers speak up? Which future should I
fight
for? My choices, and the choices of hundreds of thousands of
people
like me, will help determine which future we get. So let's take a
look and start talking.

05/25/2004 06:55 AM
The power of a picture to evoke a feeling and convey a meaning more
elegantly and more efficiently than mere words is, especially in these
times, awe inspiring. One of the reasons I enjoy illustrating many of
my entries with photos is due to their ability to describe my subject
far more completely and without bias than I can. In the wake of the
Iraqi prison torture photos I have been waiting and hoping for an
explanation of how people could do this, take photos of it and display
them proudly on their PC. Regardless of all the rhetoric about 'this
is war' or 'but they attacked first' or 'they beheaded an American', I
want to understand how anyone and everyone who knew about it and
participated in it could follow their orders so completely that they
went an extra mile and posed for pictures in which they exuded a pride
one usually only sees in game hunter photos including the dead carcass
of the one that didn't get away.
Being an American abroad in a country that is neither NATO or
supplying combatant troops to Iraq amplifies my feelings of betrayal
by my own country and the scrutiny by the rest of the world who don't
wonder at the news since they've known all along that we're just a
bunch of thugs who frequently break or refashion the rules of
engagement to suit our whims. I haven't been proud to be an American
in so many years that it seems pointless to try to count them, but
this is a new low. Much of America, in a collective white trash
playground yawp, will rebutt the outrage by saying something ignorant
like "War is hell" or "We saved them from Saddam" while forgetting
that the whole exercise was to liberate Iraq, not take over the
country and pick up where Saddam left off at Abu Ghraib. Who knew
about this and why did it take so long to hit the press? There are a
lot of troops over there and a number who have returned already. Why
aren't we asking them to stand up and testify? I know a few people
serving in Iraq, one of whom was even an MP in or near Baghdad, and
every day I resist the urge to send them an email with one line:
Did you know? I suppose I don't because I'm afraid that
all of them will say yes and I don't know that I have a response to
that which wouldn't sound confrontational and accusatory. Of course
they knew.
The most disturbing part of the photos is the gloating and posing by
the soldiers, but there was something oddly familiar about them, too,
that I just couldn't place. Fortunately, Susan Sontag has reminded me
why in
What Have We Done?":
So, then, the real issue is not the photographs but what the
photographs reveal to have happened to "suspects" in American custody?
No: the horror of what is shown in the photographs cannot be separated
from the horror that the photographs were taken - with the
perpetrators posing, gloating, over their helpless captives. German
soldiers in the second world war took photographs of the atrocities
they were committing in Poland and Russia, but snapshots in which the
executioners placed themselves among their victims are exceedingly
rare. (See a book just published, Photographing the Holocaust by
Janina Struk.) If there is something comparable to what these pictures
show it would be some of the photographs - collected in a book
entitled Without Sanctuary - of black victims of lynching taken
between the 1880s and 1930s, which show smalltown Americans, no doubt
most of them church-going, respectable citizens, grinning, beneath the
naked mutilated body of a black man or woman hanging behind them from
a tree. The lynching photographs were souvenirs of a collective action
whose participants felt perfectly justified in what they had done. So
are the pictures from Abu Ghraib.
If there is a difference, it is a difference created by the
increasing ubiquity of photographic actions. The lynching pictures
were in the nature of photographs as trophies - taken by a
photographer, in order to be collected, stored in albums; displayed.
The pictures taken by American soldiers in Abu Ghraib reflect a shift
in the use made of pictures - less objects to be saved than evanescent
messages to be disseminated, circulated. A digital camera is a common
possession of most soldiers. Where once photographing war was the
province of photojournalists, now the soldiers themselves are all
photographers - recording their war, their fun, their observations of
what they find picturesque, their atrocities - and swapping images
among themselves, and emailing them around the globe.
I've seen some of those pictures from the age of lynching as a sport
and they are every bit as repellent as the ones from Abu Ghraib. It's
pretty sad to think that, in spite of exterminating 6 million people
during a war, the Nazi's didn't pose with piles of skulls like a game
fisherman who just hauled in a great catch, no, they apparently still
had some shred of decency left somewhere. They even had fine Leica
cameras to document it with, not some crappy, grainy mobile phone
camera. I mean, what in the fuck is going on here? Baseball, Apple Pie and
Tortue: The American Way makes an attempt to put some of the
blame where it belongs, on Americans. Why is America behaving like
it's the only damn country who ever sustained an attack by terrorists
and are lashing out as though rounding up all the people in Iraq and
torturing them is going to either stop terrorism or elicit good will
from those who aren't planning to bomb the US?
As someone who isn't living in the back patting, thumbs up, alrighty
let's kill some terrorists enclave of the continental US, I'll gladly
inform those who are that the only thing that is working, is making
those of us with US passports feel even more exposed, more ashamed and
desperate to not be mistaken as an American. We keep waiting and
watching for some sign, some faint hope that the people of America
will find someone to rally around and march on Washington and riot in
the streets. I suppose we'll be waiting until the Wal-Mart runs out of
cheap crap to buy. America is a country of sheep who follow orders,
obediently consume and optimistically hope that no matter if they sit
on the couch and do nothing that everything will turn out alright.
Optimism. Always.
They say a picture is worth 1,000 words and the only words I've been
getting from them are "Fuck the World." I want the other 997 words
explaining how in the hell it happened, continued to happen, pictures
made it onto screensavers and everyone just watched and 'followed
orders'. I want to know this as it's the same thing that happened with
Hitler's willing executioners. How is it that the US is the arbiter of
democracy and truth? I want those 997 words that the pictures were at
a loss to explain.

12/29/2004 02:59 AMApprehension continues to rise here in Hawaii with our extended
family in that a family member has not checked in from Thailand. I
have spent the past 5-6 hours digging thru survivor/deceased list and
have came up with nothing. The concern is even greater in that she is
a very responsible young lady and would have have called home if she
could have by now considering how concerned she knew her mother would
be.
Like the thousands upon thousands of others in the same situation
all we can do is say a quiet prayer and keep our fingers crossed.
