THE VN/VO by Christopher J. Falvey | ARTICLESUnconventional commentary on politics, society, media, economics, and everything that matters.The Anti-War Movement: A Cause Without an Issue- September 19, 2005 In the national debate on the war in Iraq, there has been surprisingly little debate on, well, the war coming from the anti-war crowd. Not only is this not helping their own cause, it is also rather dangerous- as the lack of a real debate on the real issues implicitly assures conformity to the Administration's side of such issues.http://www.vnvo.com/stories/anti_war_movement_a_cause_without_an_issue_p1.asp New Orleans Disaster: A test of cultures, failed.- September 13, 2005 Taking a look at the disaster in New Orleans relative to the potential aftermath of the proverbial terrorist attack on our soil, what we find is frightening: a nation completely unprepared to handle a widespread, planned catastrophe.

Upon a closer look, what is included in the book does not help prove man's destruction- as media reviews have gleaned. However, what is not included in the book does illustrate where the modern environmentalist contention logically falls short.http://www.vnvo.com/stories/atlas_misled_un_book_exposes_flaws_environmentalist_argument_p... |
