As always with AlterNet, this article is a damn good read,
and an excellent perspective of our shared Pax Americana reality.

Have you noticed how many articles I link from Alternet.org?
It's because they do an excellent job of allowing truth to be authority,

And like Commondreams, et al, the "Comments" section is quite often
as enlightening as the article itself, sometimes even more so.
