• November 22 -- "The
Worsening Situation in Iraq"
A front-page story by Larry Rohter on China's economic ties to Latin America
includes, apropos of nothing: "The United States, preoccupied with the
worsening situation in Iraq, seems to have attached little importance to China's
rising profile in the region." Given the fall of the terror base of
Falluja, are things really "worsening" in Iraq?
• May 27 -- More Left-Wing Che Clichés
Larry Rohter on Argentina's tiresome Che chic: "Che Guevara is widely remembered today as a revolutionary figure; to some a heroic, Christ-like martyr, to others the embodiment of a failed ideology….for Latin Americans just now coming of age, yet another image of Che is starting to emerge: the romantic and tragic young adventurer who has as much in common with Jack Kerouac or James Dean as with Fidel Castro." Rohter leaves out one group: Those who consider Guevara a bloodthirsty Communist militant.
