...Tsang's own future. Earlier this year the Chinese leadership replaced the ineffectual Tung Chee-hwa with the more competent Tsang, hoping his popularity could persuade Hong Kongers to accept a slower pace of democratization. As they grow increasingly frustrated with Beijing, however, they may come to direct their anger at a more accessible target: Tsang. (Massive street protests played a part in Tung's departure.) This would be bad for the city. Tsang does seem to have Hong Kong's best interests at heart. After the Dec. 4 demonstration, he remarked: "I am 60 years of age. I certainly...
...though, that he may have gone too far. In October the U.S. released a letter that it said was sent in July from al-Zawahiri to al-Zarqawi--in which bin Laden's deputy urged the Jordanian to refrain from attacking Shi'ites in Iraq. It has provoked the anger of moderate Muslims around the world. Al-Zawahiri suggests such attacks "be put off until the force of the mujahid movement in Iraq gets stronger...
...other repressive regimes from power in Ukraine and Georgia. Yet here the public at large seems to show little taste for rebellion. Opinion polls are highly unreliable: some show 60% of the population opposes Lukashenko, but others say 60% support him.

...scheduled this week's trip to Europe, Condoleezza Rice no doubt expected another round of the transatlantic bonhomie she has come to enjoy as U.S. Secretary of State, as the sharp antipathies of the Iraq war have dissipated. Instead, Rice will find European publics and politicians full of fresh anger about how the U.S. is conducting the war on terror: not just old complaints about Guantánamo and Abu Ghraib, but new ones about cia "black sites" in Europe that allegedly house secret prisoners, and an active program of shuttling captured terrorist suspects around using European airports. Some European...
...best - and most tantalizing - work, "The Outrage," which culminates all the most impressive aspects of Carol Tyler's art. Just the beginning of "a very long story," it details the origins of Tyler's feeling that "everything in my life existed around the edges." It dives headlong into her anger about giving up her own ambitions for the sake of raising a child while floundering in an apparently loveless marriage to the neurotic comix-maker Justin Green (who is also famed for his brutal auto-bio works). One memorable sequence, colored in bronze and blood-red, depicts the nursing author...
