Historians and Prophets
For some reason, it's a day for essays which should frighten any intelligent inhabitant of the planet.
Thom Hartmann brings us a sense of historical perspective. Scott Ritter makes some strong revelations (and has a track record to back this up). And finally, Paul Krugmann makes some prognostications which coincide creepily with some hefty accusations out of the administration.
As one of the comments in the latter says, having the Krugmann article side-by-side in the NYT opposite an "assassination" article is a Dali and Godot kind of moment. Thankfully, at least one court in the affair is calling them on their bullshit.
