By ALAN DERSHOWITZ

A real dialogue would have been better.

President Carter's speech at Brandeis University on Tuesday should have been a real debate. Instead, it was a one-way dialogue with pre-screened questions and no rebuttals. Had Carter allowed the dialogue he says he wants to provoke, we all could have learned something.

Does Anyone Actually Believe ....

Does anyone actually believe Pakistan does not know the exact location of Bin Laden and company? It's one of the biggest jokes running since 9/11. Pakistan knows the minute Bin Laden is in U.S. hands their importance level drops significantly in American eyes. This is why they will never disclose his location. Every time I read one of their denials in print I find it hard not to laugh out loud.

PM: Bin Laden not hiding in Pakistan
POSTED: 11:42 a.m. EST, January 25, 2007

DAVOS, Switzerland (Reuters) -- Osama bin Laden is not in Pakistan, as far as the government is aware, and if anyone has intelligence to the contrary, they should share it, Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz said on Thursday.

U.S. intelligence chief John Negroponte, in testimony to a Senate committee earlier this month, wrote that al Qaeda leaders were holed up in a secure hide-out in Pakistan, without naming bin Laden or his deputy Ayman al-Zawahri.
