Leituras para o fim de semana (2)

Iraque
First Declassified Iraq Documents Released * AN ARMY OF TRANSLATORS NEEDED * Documents Prove Iraq's Connection to bin Laden * Indicates regime was cooperating with bin Laden group to strike U.S. * US and Iran ready for Iraq talks (a que preço?) * Fighting Smarter In Iraq * The Gangs of Baghdad * Invasion was the courageous thing to do

Hamas

Islamofascism
The Fallaci Code * Insurgents claim al Qaeda backers purged from Anbar * Krekar claims Islam will win * Tense debates in Saudi as Islamists fear reforms * UN compound attacked in Sudan

Miscelâneas
Dutch Immigrants Must Watch Racy Film *Made by Muslims * Good times roll in city where fun was banned (Kabul)* Poll reveals Turkish conservatism * The Decline of Mainstream Media * North Korea ranks tops persecution list * Dozens of teachers resign amid cheating scandal * 'Hanoi Jane' honour is defeated * Blurring the lines:
As for gay marriage, I've come to a studied ambivalence. I think it a mistake for society to make this ultimate declaration of indifference between gay and straight life, if only for reasons of pedagogy. On the other hand, I have enough gay friends and feel the pain of their inability to have the same level of social approbation and confirmation of their relationship with a loved one that I'm not about to go to anyone's barricade to deny them that. It is critical, however, that any such fundamental change in the very definition of marriage be enacted democratically and not (as in the disastrous case of abortion) by judicial fiat. Call me agnostic. But don't tell me that we can make one radical change in the one-man, one-woman rule and not be open to the claim of others that their reformation be given equal respect.
