Fascinating reading:

March 2, 2003 by Michael Boyle

Fascinating reading:

A U.S. Diplomat’s Letter of Resignation in the NY Times (therefore, the link won’t remain active forever). “The policies we are now asked to advance are incompatible not only with American values but also with American interests. Our fervent pursuit of war with Iraq is driving us to squander the international legitimacy that has been America’s most potent weapon of both offense and defense since the days of Woodrow Wilson.”

Friedman’s latest column in the NYTimes

Friedman’s latest column in the NYTimes

seems like a pretty reasonable analysis of the current sad situation: Tell the Truth. “Some of this we can’t control. But some we can, which is why it’s time for the Bush team to shape up – dial down the attitude, start selling this war on the truth, give us a budget that prepares the nation for a war abroad, not a party at home, and start doing everything possible to create a global context where we can confront Saddam without the world applauding for him.”

It looks like Shift

It looks like Shift

might finally be closing, according to this TorStar article: Shift magazine publishes its last issue. I was a reader since its original Lit-mag incarnation with the round logo, and although I’d stopped keeping track when the second of the two founders stepped aside, I still think it’s a big shame that it couldn’t keep on going.

That said, it’s Shift – it could just as well be reincarnated as anything else.
