 If you like John Ashcroft's America, you'll LOVE George Bush's -- er, Iyad Allawi's Iraq!

Clareified blogroller Iocaste points out a news story that is getting very little play in the mainstream media.  According to news reports, Iyad Allawi, the new prime minister of Iraq, shot a handful of prisoners in cold blood just before the turnover of power.  If this is true (Allawi reportedly has categorically denied these reports), it obviously raises serious questions about the new government of Iraq.  But, in our haste to extricate ourselves from that quagmire, perhaps we forgot to explain “due process”.  Or maybe there was nobody in the administration who could.

Also, please welcome Fantasy Life to our blogroll.  Iocaste’s intelligent and interesting commentary (especially, but not exclusively, about securities law) makes it worth a visit, despite the somewhat frustrating interface.
