		<description><![CDATA[My favorite economist and commentator puts the Madoff scandal in the proper perspective.

There is one point Krugman doesn&#8217;t make which is the reason why I am commenting on this: the greed that fuels Wall Street is the same greed that leads to war. It is no coincidence that Bush &#38; Co removed all remaining restraints on Wall Street [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The war in Yugoslavia was a turning point in the human rights movement. Appalled by the atrocities they saw, many Western war correspondents advocated for military intervention by the US and the EU. The rallying cry was &#8220;how can we stand by and let another Holocaust happen?&#8221; Eventually (not soon enough for what would soon be known as the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday while reading AMNY I saw an article about Kosovo. As with the so-called &#8220;Cedar Revolution&#8221; and &#8220;Orange Revolution&#8221; there was the obligatory picture of a pretty girl sitting on someone&#8217;s shoulders and waving a flag.

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;People do bad things because they believe there isn&#8217;t enough to go around.&#8221;
