If Colin Powell's talk sounds interesting, you should check out the views of the President's legal adviser at the same time Secretary Powell was conducting diplomatic negotiations when John Yoo talks March 2. Critic of the neo-conservative hijacking of US foreign policy Stefan Halper will surely have interesting things to say about Gen. Powell February 21.
