Yuri Manga: Linkage
2009-09-09 18:00:00 "Do you remember, the moment your love first began?" Thus begins Linkage, the collection of Yuri Hime stories by Kurata Uso. These stories are linked only by their exploration of that one moment, when two people realize that they share the same feelings as one another. Two office workers who misunderstand their importance to one another, a young flutist and the woman who loves her, a rebellious schoolgirl who falls for a blind girl, two sisters who have always been close, and an AI researcher and her creation. None of these really has any 'link' to one another. The links are forged between the women in the relationships, and between them and us as we watch their love blossom into something real. There's little here that stands above and beyond the Typical "Story A," really, except that that characters are well drawn and well conceived. Despite the fact that only one of them even acknowledges the difficulty of the admission of loving another woman, these stories are pretty dar...

Linkage, a Ridiculous Claim but Not Too Ridiculous for Tony Blair
2008-09-16 16:13:00 Tony Blair, a snake in the grass if there ever was one, has once again repeated the canard of linkage. This is a subtle, disinguenuous method of endangering Israel that is widespread in British and US State Department circles. It is one of the false but cynical ideas favored by Zbigniew Brzezinski, jimmy carter's national insecurity advisor, now a senior advisor to Obama --most likely Obama's most senior advisor. This idea or method is called "linkage," that is, that every bad thing that happens east of Suez is Israel's fault, and even many bad things happening west of Suez. And anyhow, world peace depends on "solving" --as in Final Solution?-- the Arab-Israeli conflict, which translates for the run of the mill diplomat into Israeli concessions of territory and Jewish rights. Fortunately, a clearheaded Lebanese editor, Michael Young, is willing to call the notion ridiculous. Here is what Blair said just recently in the Arab village of Beit Iba near Sh'khem ["Nablus"] on the occa...
