Subject: [RRE]attack


Here are 200+ URL's about the war from the last few days, including
much information about the anthrax attacks and responses in the Muslim
world.  Although I've included many items from the mainstream media,
I've tried to omit information that you've probably heard a hundred
times, focusing instead on articles that provide perspective.  Thanks
to everyone who contributed.

Next issue Friday.  Please keep sending me items that aren't likely
to appear in the mainstream media.  Thanks a lot.
