As YouTube has gone to Google I expect that all this copyrighted material will disappear for good soon. The party will be over at least on YouTube, Google Video is a lot stricter about copyright than YouTube has ever been. There will be other sites anyway.
Hopefully as I have enjoyed watching videos of old TV programmes, stuff that interests me a lot more that what the record companies allow us to watch. I don't want to watch just Paris Hilton.
So let's take advantage of this while it lasts.

Scary stuff

War with Iran -- a war that would unleash an apocalyptic scenario in the Middle East -- is probable by the end of the Bush administration. It could begin in as little as three weeks. This administration, claiming to be anointed by a Christian God to reshape the world, and especially the Middle East, defined three states at the start of its reign as "the Axis of Evil." They were Iraq, now occupied; North Korea, which, because it has nuclear weapons, is untouchable; and Iran. Those who do not take this apocalyptic rhetoric seriously have ignored the twisted pathology of men like Elliott Abrams, who helped orchestrate the disastrous and illegal contra war in Nicaragua, and who now handles the Middle East for the National Security Council. He knew nothing about Central America. He knows nothing about the Middle East. He sees the world through the childish, binary lens of good and evil, us and them, the forces of darkness and the forces of light. And it is this strange, twilight mentality that now grips most of the civilian planners who are barreling us towards a crisis of epic proportions.
Some people thought that the Cold War was really scary. Well with hindsight it wasn't. You had two sides that did not want to die, Now we have these people who are also here.
