why is naomi wolf always shady and warped about powerful men who commit sexual assaults? previously, she was defending julian assange and saying the sexual assaults were no big deal on democracy now. now  she is tying in Dominique Strauss-Kahn to a crtique about the rise of surveillance and the patriot act. way to not even touch upon how muslim communities and ordinary people are surveilled...she apparenly wants people to feel sorry for people who are public figures who abuse their power. DSK was "outed" bc the woman he assaulted reported it. why should he be be allowed to slink off and have "privacy" for his actions? am  i missing something here? she makes no bloody sense but she's already established, so no matter what she spouts, she'll find someplace to publish it.

I never thought of her as a real one either

And I think they're guilty. Guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty.

I haven't read Al-Jazeera as much since their rush to applaud the US bombings of Libya, so I'm almost afraid to read this one.

btw, do you have any resources/articles on the politics of Al Jazeera re: US military involvement in Libya?

This guy has been a good chronicler about a lot of things
