War & politics: Sept 11th, bin Laden, Middle East news, from my own perspective.
Guardian: How to deal with the American goliath - The United States is not going to listen to lectures from Europe about American responsibilities. Not until Europe demonstrates a much greater willingness to start addressing its own responsibilities.
Guardian: Blair and Bush to plot war on Iraq - Saddam is attempting to amass rudimentary nuclear capabilities and is also investigating a way to launch 'dirty' nuclear bombs - unsophisticated devices which would nevertheless wreak havoc if ever used.
Western intelligence services also believe Saddam is developing biological and chemical devices which could kill and maim tens of thousands of people.
