The Truthdig Book Review Edited by Steve Wasserman
"David Rieff on ‘Africa’s World War’

" -- Why does the Darfur violence arouse outrage but the slaughter of millions more in Congo does not? An indispensable new book by Gerard Prunier attempts an answer by combining cool analysis and scholarly dispassion without losing sight of the horror of its subject.

>> TRUTHDIG ORIGINAL REPORTS:

Sandy Tolan on the Gaza Spat in Davos
"Erdogan, Peres and the Soufflés of Davos

" -- Dear Mr. Prime Minister: I write with grave concern over your impertinent remarks to the president of Israel at the World Economic Forum last week, which threatened to delay dinner for hundreds of extremely important global thinkers.

Chip Fleischer on Howard Dean for HHS
"Howard Dean Should Have Been Obama’s Pick All Along

" -- Now that Tom Daschle has withdrawn his name from the running to be health and human services secretary, President Obama should revisit the idea of nominating former Democratic National Chairman Howard Dean for the position, an idea he abandoned last November for all the wrong reasons.

>> DON'T MISS THE BEST OF OUR SYNDICATED COLUMNISTS:

Marie Cocco on Wall Street Greed
"Dear Wall Street

" -- The reason you are such a big story is that you’ve stolen our money. Or at least that’s how most of the country sees it. You think those auto executives looked bad when they flew into Washington on their private jets? Just you wait.

Joe Conason on the Stimulus Debate
"Stimulus Skeptics Wrong (Again)

" -- Mythology is overshadowing history in the debate over Obama’s plan to stimulate the depressed economy. Excessive airtime is devoted to the prejudices of cable hosts and radio personalities who regurgitate ideas they barely understand.

E.J. Dionne on the Stimulus Media Wars
"GOP Revs Up the Spin on Stimulus

" -- Republicans have been winning the media wars over Obama’s central initiative. They have done so largely by defining the proposal by its least significant parts.

Ellen Goodman on the Octuplets and Ethics
"Eight Is (More Than) Enough

" -- It turns out that the woman who recently gave birth to eight babies already had six in vitro kids at home, no spouse, no job and a pending bankruptcy. There’s a word for this achievement of medicine’s reproductive business: nuts.

William Pfaff on Washington Politics
"In Washington, Public Policy and Private Wealth Are Hopelessly Tangled

" -- Barack Obama in Washington reminds one of Diogenes in Athens, with his lantern in search of an honest man.

David Sirota on Obama's Disappointing Lackeys
"A Team of Zombies

" -- Only weeks ago, the political world was buzzing about a “team of rivals,” but instead President Obama has populated his administration with Bush yes-men and Wall Street kleptocrats whose discredited theologies cannot be killed.
