“Is the world finally cracking up?” we wondered aloud in these pages earlier this week. From the look of events unfolding across the volatile Middle East and North Africa region, it certainly seemed so.
Governments are toppling, buildings are ablaze and protesters are “speak-to-tweeting” their way to freedom…of a sort.
But what about closer to home, back in the belly of the empire? It’s one thing for far-flung outposts to collapse, for the “uncivilized,” “unwashed” masses beyond the gates to storm their capital buildings and raise hell. But surely that couldn’t happen here, could it?
Of course it could. The existence of the state virtually guarantees it!

I discontinued my subscription of the DT 4 years ago mainly because of delivery issues. Since then they've gone through a lot of changes and degraded both content and scope. I di, however, read it on line every day and saw that they rolled out a new website format yesterday. Still the same lackluster content but it looks better. I'm thinking that soon they will be a pay site and that will be the end of that.
