The 2008 market crash was an (unofficial) act of war on the United States. That is the thrust of Kevin D. Freeman's carefully documented "The Secret Weapon: How Economic Terrorism Brought Down the U.S. Stock Market and Why it Can Happen Again." He does not dismiss a theory of Spain redux. Noting "al Qaeda's successful attempt to change the Spanish government by bombing the Madrid train system just before Spain's 2004 elections," the author writes, "bloggers asked whether al Qaeda may have reprised the tactic in Washington using a financial attack instead of a bombing." Not incidentally, it wiped out John McCain's lead in the presidential campaign, facilitating Barack Obama's November victory.

Forsyth defines war as an act of force by a nation-state, crime organization, terror group, drug cartel, revolutionary group, or coalition of states to compel an enemy to do one's will, accept a specific ideology, or prevent or allow unfettered criminal activity. The causes of war might include failures of diplomacy, communications, economic policies, or inadequate internal security. Wars should result improved security for an affected nation's citizens, but often result in degraded or deteriorated social conditions.

The setting is the segregated American South in August 1945, the end of World War II, a moment of triumph and celebration. It was also the month that launched the baby boom, and a handsome young couple, Jarvis (Michael Komurek) and Janice (Lilli Komurek), are getting married. Excluded from the party are the family's black cook, Berenice (Jacque Tara Washington), orphaned 12-year-old tomboy Frankie (Rachel Moulton), and Frankie's sickly cousin John Henry (Ryan Sparks). Frankie feels her isolation more sharply as she is also rejected by the neighborhood girls' clique. In a little more than a year on the scene, the Redhouse, under director Gerard Moses, has established a mark with edgy, hip contemporary dramas like David Auburn's Proof and Yasmina Reza's Life x 3. With The Member of the We...
Nordstrom is an anthropology professor at the University of Notre Dame who ventures into dangerous realms unknown to most journalists, then shares her stunning findings in her books about the illegal global trade in "products" ranging from slave labor, blood diamonds and deadly weapons of war to pharmaceuticals, cigarettes, refrigerators and other everyday household goods. When investigating international crime, journalists conditioned to focus on government tend to completely miss sources and subjects who "tend to travel with six passports, run illegal commodities and laundering scams . . . buy hot vehicles, deal drugs, or act as kingpins ... of criminal organizations," Nordstrom says.
It's difficult to know what to make of "Last of the Boys," the often comic drama Next Act Theatre chose to open its 17th season Friday night. As a stage version of a buddy movie, it is entertaining in the first of the play's two acts. Dramatist Steven Dietz wrote some smart-alecky funny dialogue, and David Cecsarini and John Kishline deliver the lines with superb natural timing while sharing a palpable rapport.
