	Narco News Deconstructs the State Dept. "Terrorist" List
		The first is Washington's confusing and arbitrary definition of "terrorists," and the State Department's hodgepodge fllist of "foreign terrorist organizations." That list fails to distinguish between groups that cross international borders to do violence and those that do not.
		In a hypocritical slight of hand, the list singles out governments that support "terrorist" organizations, with nary a mention of governments that themselves engage in the exact same acts of violence and brutality that define terrorism.
		Among the states it listed as backing terrorist groups are newfound "allies" in today's version of the "war on terrorism." They include Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Sudan and Lebanon.

	Ann Marlowe on Afghanistan on National Review Online
		Before the Soviet invasion, Afghanistan had muddled along with a king whose authority diminished as distance from Kabul increased, provincial governors from the khan class, and the clans of a hundred cousins below them.
		In business terms we might term some of this corruption, but the fact is that everyone in Afghanistan is someone's cousin, views himself as such, and operates in a more or less potent version of the same network.
		It is fashionable to wring one's hands over the difficulties of the task we have set ourselves in Afghanistan, but instead we should rejoice at a situation where with little relatively little money and effort we can make a huge cultural impact and win ourselves friends for generations.
