It Appears That The Madoff Scam Was Not, Repeat Not, A Ponzi Scheme. For 3 1/2 years I have conceded, as apparently did everyone else that Madoff was a Ponzi scheme. In the last few weeks however, I have come to think that Madoff was not a Ponzi scheme. The reasons for this view are discussed in the attached blog.

Attempted Statutory Immunity For The Executive's War Crimes. The Bush Administration, with McCain's assistance, has obtained statutory provisions immunizing it against liability for war crimes (including torture) in American courts. Will these provisions be an effective defense? Will they pre-emptively deter prosecution, so that we may never find out?

Eric Lomax's "The Railway Man" And Today's America The Railway Man, reminds us why Americans of a certain period hated the Germans. The discovery of the concentration camps caused American soldiers to begin to hate the Germans, to regard them all as beasts, and sometimes to take no prisoners but instead to kill the Germans without quarter and without mercy. The camps were, he says, the reason the Americans began to feel they were on a crusade.

To wit, Bush wants no retroactive liability for torture -- a felony -- because he is guilty of this crime. Herbert also recognized that the reason Bush wants military tribunals to try detainees is that civilian courts won't allow evidence to be introduced if it was obtained by torture or is the "fruit" of evidence obtained by torture.
