Morning Coffee Catchall
Sorry for the catchall posts. Normally, I wouldn't relegate these stories to these small references, but with all the space I'm giving to the Plame investigations, something had to give. Once we get past the indictments, and the speculation part of the investigation ends, I should be able to go back to more "balanced" blogging.
The LATimes is running a story on criticism of Big Oil's Big Profits.
A German court has convicted four men of planning to bomb Jewish targets in Germany. The key element of this story is that the conversations with Zarqawi date back to Oct. 2001.
AP is running a pretty terrifying piece on the potential for regional instability in the case of an Iraqi civil war. I've often wondered if perhaps this was the goal of some in the Bush admin all along. (Take a look sometime at Ledeen's espousal of Schumpeter's theories of "Creative Destruction."
The US/British/French push for a UN security council resolution against Syria is running into trouble, unsurprisingly, with China and Russia. On the bright side, the threat appears to be only sanctions.
The US and Japan appear to have come to an agreement to move an air station out of a densely populated section of Okinawa. Hopefully, this will reduce some of the tension over US presence there.
The USAToday is reporting that maybe Bush exaggerated his claim that the US had foiled ten Al Qaeda in that major terrorism speech earlier this month.
