In the news… Amnesty International is upset because the CIA has been threatening to kill prisoners if they don't cooperate, and the UN human rights committee is also looking into it and criticizing the US actions. The rest of the world isn't too happy with the US either on account of them refusing to foot Afghanistan's repair bill after the bombing, expecting other countries to pick up the tab.
If I'm to believe Ashcroft, one of the big problems in winning this war are all the voices of negativity — those who speak out against the war in any way are probably helping the terrorists he suggests. It could be worse though — in Britain they make you recite a loyalty oath if you have anti-war leanings. He says, “Your tactics only aid terrorists, for they erode our national unity and diminish our resolve. They give ammunition to America's enemies and pause to America's friends. They encourage people of goodwill to remain silent in the face of evil.“
Oh, and there will be an experience update posted in an hour or so…
