| | Soriano Hostage Crisis: Day 2 (Angels at Cubs, 3:05 CT) | | 2008-03-14 13:00:00 | |
As day two of the Alfonso Soriano Lineups Hostage Crisis breaks over Mesa, the air hangs heavy with tension. Tension so thick you can sense it, feel it, smell it. Or maybe that's the lockerroom. But anyway, it's tense.
In a suprise move to anyone who doesn't obsess over Cubs blogs all day, after hailing Soriano as "a great success" in the leadoff spot, Manager Lou Piniella inexplicably dropped him in the order to the number 2 spot.

They passed the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). This legislation would have given the intelligence community broad authority to monitor telecommunications of suspected terrorists. Since having been named Director of National Intelligence (DNI), Mike McConnell has repeatedly stated that the intelligence community requires the broad collection and monitoring capabilities provided under the Senate legislation. Disappointingly,...(read more)... | | By: An American Warning | | |
| | Imad Mughniyeh: How he held America Hostage | | 2008-02-14 09:19:58 | | The killing of Imad Mughniyeh, the Hezbollah terrorist leader behind the death and kidnappings of hundreds of Americans, is a major development and a reminder of the painful Lebanon hostage traumas inflicted on the western world in the 1980’s, long before 9/11. In a precursor to the present, Mughniyeh’s terrorist acts were related to conflicts involving Iraq and Iran and utilized techniques that have been adopted by Al Qaeda. The traumatic events, which wrapped the Reagan Administration...(read more)... | | By: An American Warning | | |

There should be protests around the world, condemning the detention of innocent civilians. More sanctions should be coming from the U.N. Why isn't this happening?Reuters: Iran may be holding ex-FBI agent, US official says Iran claims they don't know what happened to the former agent. How can they not? If a former intelligence agent from your archnemesis country visits yours, would you NOT keep an eye on them?
