New posts below, other news here:

Irish Indy Media and anti-Semitism.

Tigerhawk rebuts the logic of suicide terrorism. He also has a pinch hitter sitting in.

Via the good folks at Mudville, this link to a great post about D-Day and the good men and women who participated.

Cap'n Ed, as well as other bloggers, sat in on a conference call with Sir Bob Geldof today. They seemed very impressed with Sir Bob. Very smart of Geldof to reach out to the blogosphere.

Over at Stryker's place, some thoughts on today's SCOTUS decision on medicinal marijuana use. This is a decision I am against as the war on drugs is a loss and no amount of funding could change that outcome. The ban on marijauna use, for medicinal or recreational use, is ridiculous and only drains vital police resources from fighting more violent types of crime.
