We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Stepping up a gear Doubtless co-ordinated with gun-attacks inside Israel, Arab/Al-Qaeda terrorists have also bombed a resort hotel in Kenya.
The death toll from the hotel bombing is now 14 people, 11 Kenyans and 3 Israelis (two children).
Even more ominously, there was a simultaneous rocket attack on an Israeli civilian airliner. Mercifully unsuccessful, but a very worrying development.

Who Are We? The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.
We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

Also worring is the response of the television and radio (both B.B.C. and “independent”).
The terrorism means the West must put pressure on Israel to “make peace” (i.e. allow itself to be destroyed) – a classic case of blame the victim.
To judge by the comments there is little difference between Mark Thomas (the C.N.D. hack currently taking the government to court on behalf of Iraq) and the ordinary newscasters – they are already saying much the same thing.

Paul, do you believe that peace is impossible in the Middle East then?
