ARKIN: EARLY WARNING

A new blog by author and critic William Arkin on the 
WashingtonPost.com web site has become instantly "bookmarkable" 
for students of national security affairs.

The web is already supersaturated with opinion, of course, and 
with analysis of varying degrees of sophistication or self-
indulgence. But Arkin's blog, Early Warning, stands out because 
he also offers access to official records that are otherwise not 
publicly available.

In his first outing on September 14, for example, he posted the 
April 2005 Department of Homeland Security National Planning 
Scenarios, which are "for official use only." On September 19, 
he disclosed another FOUO document on "Potential Terrorist Use 
of Pressure Cookers." And "there is a lot more where that came 
from," he promises, or threatens.
