Here are some more URL's related to the attacks and war. I've mostly recovered from my post-September 11th burnout, and RRE readers are being real good about only sending me the high-quality material that people aren't likely to get from the mainstream media. I don't know if this level of effort is sustainable, but I'll see what happens. Thanks to everyone who contributed.
