ImageSo I'm re-reading Michael Oren's Six Days of War, an outstanding book on the June, 1967 war between Israel and Egypt, Syria, Iraq, and Jordan, and I was mulling over the situation over there. I concluded that reasonable people can agree on the following:

  • Israel has a right to exist
  • A Palestinian state made up of Gaza and the West Bank has a right to exist

After 60 years of fighting, I believe most of the people in the area can agree on those two points (in conjunction, at least).

Citizens United v. FEC

ImageIn rendering their decision, the majority in Citizens United v. FEC swept away decades of concerns expressed regarding corporate influence on US elections. From Brandeis to Rhenquist to Marshall, justices have consistently, and at times unanimously, ruled that the interests of the public in maintaining fair and open elections extended to limiting corporate campaign expenditures. It cannot be stressed enough how complete a reversal this ruling represents.

BitLogic Logo Don't believe everything you think, and you probably shouldn't believe everything we think either.  BitLogic is, for lack of a better term, primarily a politics blog.  However, BitLogic is not limited to politics.

As BitLogic matures and the site is populated with content, you will find:

  • A moderately liberal interpretation of politics and current events
  • Commentary on game design, development, and some critiques of games
  • Fiction and science fiction, short-stories, vignettes 
  • Other random observations as my fevered mind decides

BitLogic is undergoing yet another site redesign. This time, I'm using Mambo, which is probably the most advanced thing I've done as far as installing software on my domain.  As with all things, the more powerful it is, the more complex it is, and Mambo is not without perplexing issues, so bear with me as I slowly make the site useful.
