One funny thing at the Counterpunch web site is that the Ten Reasons
This War Sucks (or maybe 57 reasons) were apparently excerpted
word-for-word from an article I read previously on a web site:

      http://www.exile.ru/feature/feature62.html

entitled "101 reasons why NATO's war sucks."  www.exile.ru has another
14 reasons in a follow-up article at:

      http://www.exile.ru/shite/morereas63.html

This web site, "the eXile," describes itself as a "two-bit biweekly club
guide" written in Moscow, Russia by "a bunch of TV-overdosed dweeb
dropouts from the American suburbs," but despite all that those two
articles aren't too stupid.

On the other hand, their link page takes you to a Detroit punk magazine
elegantly entitled "Fuck Everything" where you can read a truly
deliberately stupid "editorial" on the Littleton business that will
either offend the Hell out of you or make you laugh hysterically, maybe
both.  Click here at your own risk, and don't say I didn't warn you:

Note the part about "the greatest Americans who ever lived," and the
"constructive" suggestions at the end of the article.
