Jun. 19th, 2008 10:59 amI'm trying hard to come up with some content, but apparently I'm full of fail today. So, here's some random linkage.
This profile of the guy who helped convince the world that Saddam had WMDs is interesting. Based on the article, "Curveball" (our man's code name) is a genuine flake - the sort of guy who could make change for a $9 bill with $3 bills. However, in the spy business as in criminal investigations, one frequently has to rely on flakes, crooks and liars. They are the ones who have the information. It's unfortunate, and can lead to real disasters, but that's the nature of the beast.
This article in Salon.com points out the complexities of globalized business. Go read it and tell me if the steel mill in question is American or foreign.
