Feb. 7, 2003 | Camille Paglia is a rarity in the increasingly polarized world of public intellectuals, a high-profile thinker and writer who is not readily identified with any political camp or party line. She burst onto the scene in 1990 following the publication of her book, "Sexual Personae." Paglia was a rough-trade feminist not afraid to challenge the orthodoxy of the women's movement or its reigning sisterhood; a professor from a small college with no qualms about torching the Parisian academic trends then enthralling Ivy League humanities departments; a self-proclaimed "Democratic libertarian" who voted twice for Bill Clinton and then loudly denounced him for bringing shame to his office.

Instead of Saddam only having the power to biologically threaten a town or a city, a highly contagious biological weapon would create a pandemic that would threaten our country and world. If Saddam put 1/10 the effort researching contagious pathogens that he has put into researching non-contagious ones, we are in a lot of trouble.

By the way, why do we have a "moral obligation" to support Israel because of the suicide bombers? If a person wasn't biased, they would see that the bad neighbor policies of Israel are enabled by our support. So why support Israeli ethnic cleansing and apartheid because those policies are causing terrorism?
