I looked up http://www.alternet.org/waroniraq/2002/11/000092.html. It's about an article about a plan. So? All sorts of wacky things get thought about and discussed in plans. And one really needs to consider the source of anything one reads. Especially on the web. Internet journalism is not exactly notorious for reliability - even less so than print & broadcast. Anyone, after all, with a computer, a modem, and a few bucks a month can be Editor-in-Chief of an "Alternate Journalism" Webzine.
