“Have you no morals, Mr. Bush?” asks John Sugg, senior editor of Creative Loafing Atlanta. Sugg echoes the Declaration of Independence addressed to King George III to make the case for President Bush's resignation. Sugg's revision of the Declaration asks today's George II, "It is fitting for the People to ask: To whom do you answer? Your constituency is obvious to those who look -- the band of lawless corporate marauders who seek to loot the world's wealth, squander the planet's resources and gamble with American workers' salaries and savings. It is not too extreme to say that you run a quisling puppet government for the pinstriped corporate warlords."

The United States has entered a new era of warfare where its enemies hide in the shadows and are highly organized. So how does the U.S. fight these new military threats? War scholar John Arquilla suggests a non-conventional, high-technological war machine. "We're going to have to learn to think like these networks," he says. "The best organizations of the future will think like a street gang, swarm like a soccer team and organize like Wal-Mart." Andrew Scutro of Monterey County Coast Weekly visits the Naval Postgraduate School to talk to military strategists in the first installment in a series on Monterey County, Calif.'s involvement in the War on Terror.
