- It?s a little early to nominate entries for Best Blog Post of 2004, I suppose, but I think it will be hard to beat Mark Kleiman?s list of five epistemic principles for thinking about politics: Being aware of your own tendency, and those of your allies, to demonize the opposition. Being more skeptical of news that tends to confirm your presuppositions, and more credulous of news that tends to challenge them, than is comfortable. |

Yow. (May 15 2004 23:57 GMT) - Gary Price noticed that when you search for "behead berg" Google brings up a sponsored link for someone who is selling the video (it didn't come up for me, but I imagine there is only so much inventory the guy wanted to buy). It feels just like a porn site. It's a sign of how we are not quite sure how we feel about watching this video that Google h |

- THE GRAY ZONE: How a secret Pentagon program came to Abu Ghraib. (Seymour M. Hersh, New Yorker) - The roots of the Abu Ghraib prison scandal lie not in the criminal inclinations of a few Army reservists but in a decision, approved last year by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, to expand a highly secret operation, which had been focussed on the hunt for Al Qaeda, to the interrogation of prisoners in Iraq. Rumsfelds decision embittered the American intelligence community, damaged the effectiveness of lite combat units, and hurt Americas prospects in the war on terror. |
