Editorial... We're into the fourth week of bombing, where we kill civilians but always by accident. Certainly dozens, possibly hundreds, so far. And we're told this may go on for years. And spread to other countries. And the govt says maybe we won't catch bin Laden but it doesn't matter. I bet the arms makers love this. I think it's criminal and will hurt our country.

Resources...Here's a resource for international perspectives in the news. It's "a nonprofit, public interest Web site dedicated to global media issues", and includes links to hundreds of established media outlets around the world: http://www.mediachannel.org/

And don't miss their news service, sort of like Reuters or AP but with an internationalist orientation: http://208.251.133.165/html/USUnderAttack/index.html
