The Taliban failed to comply, and the United States began shooting missiles Sunday. The bombings show that this country will support its words with deeds, but was firepower really necessary? Many in the United States seem to be concerned that any other course of action would amount to a laughable concession, but from where we stand here on South Hill, less violent solutions seem possible. For in­ stance, an international court of justice exists. Bm Laden must face a global Jury like Slobodan Milosevic and Nazi Rudolf Hess. The Umted States often shuns international bodies such as the Inter­ national Court of Justice, claiming they are weak. But if the United States actively committed to these institutions, they would be more powerful and effective. The country does not have to act alone - dozens of nations have declared their support and Great Britain has joined the military action. Yet leaders insist on pursuing narrow self-interests. Justice is not being served by bombing strategic sites in a country already decimated by civil war. Nor does a narrow definition of self-defense apply in this situation. Any action one country takes to defend its own borders is directly tied to the stability and defense of other nations. If President Pervez Mushar­ raf's rule in Pakistan collapses because of U.S. and British military pres­ ence, this nation and others may be subject to even more violence. While the government reports the number of targets hit and the Tal­ iban tallies hves lost, the greater consequences of the attacks must not be overlooked. U.S. military and political leaders must not focus solely Letters on revenge and the eradication of terrorism, but they must consider the repercussions of their strategy. Other nations deserve to have peace, and this nation's desire for retribution should not instigate violence elsewhere.

An open letter to the Ithaca College Community regarding employee and student· e-mail

Ithaca College Ithaca, New York 14850-7027 ITHACA 607-274-3030 -

Academic Computing and Client Services October 11, 200 I

To the Ithaca College Community,

I thought it would be good to let everyone know what the situation is with email service on both the student email server, IC3, and the faculty/staff server, IC4. In summary, IC3 continues to suffer from periodic serious message delivery delays, while IC4 suffers less severe delivery delays during the busiest hours of the day, from late morning to early evening, and then catches up. Both systems are in the process of being upgraded to entirely new technology this semester. The details arc as follows.

The message delivery problems on both systems resulted from an overwhelming amount of incoming email (more than double the normal load on any given day) generated by viruses that are propagated by email. The worst one, called "SirCam", propagates by attaching itself to a random data file on a Windows desktop computer and then sending that file as an attachment to all email addresses it can find on that system, and continuing to do so endlessly until that computer is disinfected. Clicking on the attachment in one of these messages will then infect the new recipient's computer, and the whole process replicates itself. You can read more about this virus at http://www.symantec.com/ avceriter/venc/data/w32.sircam.won~mm.html .

Our c~rrent email servers are at the end of their usable life, and they do not have the technology to filter virus messages before they require processing. We do wipe them out after delivery but this takes up large amounts of processing power and time. With recent campus wide information campaigns, and with making virus protection and disinfecting tools freely available to the community, we have largely stopped the viruses from propagating on the computers on our campus, and we are working on controlling this traffic from infected computers on the Internet at large. No legitimate mail is being lost. It is being delayed, and in some cases, when delivery exceeds time-out limits, a message will get bounced (though far more often a bounce is due to a person's account being over quota).

We are in the latter phase of upgrading our email servers to completely new technology, with l O times the power and storage of our current servers, and with the means to protect against incoming viruses. We had hoped to have these upgrades completed over the summer, but they are a far more complex environment than our current one and even now a few technical problems are still being worked out. We will bring the new student system up as soon as possible, and the new faculty/staff server will be released subsequent to the success of the new student server. Stay tuned for further time frame announcements.

In the meantime, we are also working bard to keep the current systems performing at an acceptable level. The faculty/ staff server, though it has been hit by the "same problem, is affected much less so by volume, and is experiencing significant delivery delays (anywhere from two to five hours) only during the busiest times of the day (late morning through early evening). The student SY:stem, realistically, may continue to suffer more serious delivery delays of a day or more for the near future.

Things will improve. There are other universities struggling with this same problem right now. I wish I could say that we had reached a point of technological maturity where the reliability of computer communications can be taken for granted, but we haven't (and I mean "We" in the global sense). We will have periods of ups and downs as older technology reaches its limits while upgrades are pending, and apparently we will, for the foreseeable future, be in constant battle with bright minds who are intent on interrupting or destroying the functionality of our systems.

Please feel free to write or call me directly if you have questions about this situation.

BY SAMI KHAN Accent Editor

Conservatives have long been clamoring about an in­ evitable clash between Islam and the West, and some of them see the Sept. 11 attacks as substantiation of their claim. But critics sec the clash of civilizations as being more ground­ ed in theory than in reality. In a 1993 essay and a subsequent book, Samuel Hunt­ ington, a professor at Harvard University's Center for In­ ternational Affairs, argued that in the post-Cold War world conflicts would ansc from the so-called clash of civilizations. In I-luntmgton\ view, political ideology has become irrele­ vant. and in its place culture has become the dominant way to view the world. "Some Westerners ... have argued that the West does not have problem:-, with Islam but only with violent Islam 1st ex­ trcm1::,ts."

Fukuyama, who is a hberal and a universalist, believes peo­ ple arc traveling down a road to an end point where Western society already is, and that is the End of History, Gagnon said. But recent armed conflicts in Iraq, the former Yugoslavia and Chechnya indicated that the post-Cold War era would not be the free-market/liberal bonanza Fukuyama predicted. In "The Clash of Civilizations," Huntington said the "un­ derlying problem for the West is not Islamic fundamental­ ism but Islam, a different civilization" whose "violence propensity" is exceeded only by that of China. ."I think that Huntington has got it completely wrong," said PHOTOS COURTESY OF THE ROYAL EMBASSY OF SAUDI.

The country with the largest Muslim pop­ ulation is Indonesia with nearly 200 million. There are 10 million Muslims in Western Europe. Islam is also the world's fastest growing religion.

Beliefs - Muslims believe in the same God as Jews and Christians and in a chain of prophets beginning with Adam and ending with Muhammad. The Quran is the record of the exact words revealed by God through the Angel Gabriel to Muhammad.

Five Pillars of Islam - 1) the shahada or declara­ tion of faith ('there is no deity but God, and Muhammad is his messenger') 2) salat or prayer five times a day 3) zakat or charitable giving to the poor 4) sawm or fasting during the holy month of Ramadan 5) hall, the pilgrimage to Mecca.

Sects - There are two major sects in Islam, Sunnis and Shi'ites. There are also divisions among the sects from rationalists to Sufi mystics.

Catching up with Jeff Wittman ... Record-setting back now coaches sport

BY ZACH FIELDS Staff Writer

It has been 10 years since the football team won a national championship. One of the main­ stays on that team was junior run­ ning back Jeff Wittman '93. Wittman left a mark on the record book for the Bombers - he is the all-time leading rusher for Ithaca with a career total ·of 3,410 yards.' Wittman also holds 13 other records for Ithaca, including eight 100-yard games in a season and 18 such games for his career. He also scored more points in a season ( 114) and in a career (270) PHOTO COURTESY OF SPORTS INFORMATION , than any other South Hill football JEFF WITTMAN '93 rushed for three touchdowns in the Bombers' 34-20 player.
