Bush the Empire Slayer

Good morning. A few items from the weekend...

• Bernard Chazelle, a computer science professor at Princeton, contributes a terrifically written piece that sums up the Bush years in red white and blight: See "Bush the Empire Slayer."
  

• The war on terror's great delusion? That Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are American allies, when they are, in fact, al-Qaeda's enabling axis. See "Pakistan, Bush and the Taliban"
  

• On Lebanon's Michel Aoun, "The General in His Laban Cloth"
  

• Can Bach--or any classical music--be translated into words? Not likely. But don;t let that stop you from trying. See "For the Love of Bach."

Plenty more in the Daily Journal. Thanks for reading.pt
