The Ultimate Burden
By Bob Herbert
If we had a draft - or merely the threat of a draft - we would not be in Iraq or Afghanistan. But we don't have a draft so it's safe for most of the nation to be mindless about waging war. Other people's children are going to the slaughter.

Is The USA A Sick Country Or What?
By Dave Lindorff
We've got a litany of horror and abuse here that sounds like the worst kind of stories that used to come out of Saddam Hussein's Iraq, or the Argentine Junta or Idi Amin's Uganda. About the only thing missing is word that the military and CIA torturers were eating their victims, or feeding them their own genitals, but who knows? Maybe we'll get there yet. It's hard at this point to rule anything out.

By Tim Shorrock
