...cannot have helped Habib that Australia's security services had been watching him for almost a decade. What first caught their eye were his connections with four Egyptians in New York. Ibrahim El-Gabrowny, Mahmud Abouhalima, Sayyid Nosair and Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman all had ties to al-Qaeda; all were convicted of involvement in the 1993 plot to bomb the World Trade Center. Habib joined protests at Nosair's 1991 trial for murdering a rabbi, tried to raise money for El-Gabrowny's defense, and raised $500 to buy medicine for Sheikh Omar.

...Atari Flashback, a $40 gaming console that plugs directly into your TV (available in Europe in March). The other is Atari Anthology, a $20 disc of games for the PlayStation 2 (available in Europe Feb. 4) and Xbox (available now).

He has published countless essays and more than 30 books, including his 2003 "investi-novel" Who Killed Daniel Pearl?, a partly fictionalized investigation...
...Dirty War can be didactic and self-congratulatory, it also smartly balances a thriller's plotting with an astute eye for politics and bureaucratic idiocy. Whether you consider it a gripping, worthy scare or titillating scaremongering may depend on whether you think it is a fair warning or a grim preview reel of inevitable coming attractions. For the sake of all of us, if not of the movie, let's hope it's the former...
