Kafka in Canada

Good Morning. A few items for the weekend...

• Maher Arar is the Syrian-born wireless technology consultant American authorities detained on false information from Canada, then "rendered" to Syria, where Arar was imprisoned and tortured for almost a year before his release. Canada cleared him of all suspicions. The Americans refuse to remove him from a terrorist watch list. See "The Hounding of Maher Arar"
  

• "The Bush presidency Is Over." Need we say more?
  

• "The Multinational Failures of Condi Rice"
  

• "Hugo Chavez, Press Thug"
  

• "Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Islam's Prickly Enlightenment"
