LETTER FROM THE EDITOR:
hat makes a prime target for terrorists? Is one building a better
location for a bombing than the other? Chicago Newcity's
Shelly Ridenour explores what may become everyday issues in the
coming years of "Holy War" and renewed U.S. gunboat
diplomacy.
IRS extortion or a savvy business man's manipulation of his political
ties? A little of both? FW Weekly's P.A. Humphrey digs
for the truth in the case of one of Texas' last oil barons fight
against the IRS and its stormtroopers.
Taking a closer look at the Pentagon's School of the Americas,
Tucson Weekly's Richard Boren recounts the story of two
Tucson, Arizona men who are serving time in federal prison for
peacefully expressing the concept that the U.S. government should
not be in the business of training murderers and dictators.
Also this week, we take a look at the oddities of the automobile,
the glorious new iMac computer, the Northwestern Airlines pilot's strike
, and an in depth profile of a Wyatt Earp historian.
