Bring Home the Brave? Thanks to Michael Kinsley for engaging the myth that to question the validity of the Iraq war is to betray the troops in the field [March 5]. Equating support for soldiers with military escalation is insidious. True support would be to remove them from harm's way. But I take exception to your affirmation that the cause-to remove a dictator-was worthy. That's just as dishonest as saying we need to continue the war to support the troops. Is the civil war that we unleashed a noble cause? Or was the arrogant pretext...

If HDAG had its way, should the HMC have to short shares of PetroChina, which would do the Sudanese government more harm than just divesting, and if so, how much should it short? Should the HMC strive to make returns negatively correlated with the share price of Sinopec? What about the HMC’s bond holdings, or investments in China altogether, where the share price correlation of stocks...

...recent years, the uneasy tension between science and faith has escalated into a full-out war of attrition.It began with the debates over teaching creationism and evolutionary theory in the early 1990s, and 9/11 further opened the door for accusations about the harm religion and fundamentalism can cause. The ongoing debate over intelligent design is only the latest battlefield in this increasingly contentious culture war.
