...Tube station where de Menezes died, a ragtag memorial of family photos, newspaper clippings and candles still hangs between a newsstand and a convenience store. This morning, fresh roses adorned the sidewalk along with new messages of support. "For Jean Charles and all of his family, our sorrow and anger are still with you." At least in this neighborhood, the anger is squarely directed toward the police. Regardless of their best intentions, by killing an innocent man, they did what the would-be suicide bombers had mercifully failed to do at a far greater scale on that summer...

On tour in the Negev desert while his party voted, Olmert told a group of students, "I decided to resign with pain, not with pleasure, I must say, really with pain." He added, less convincingly, "I have no bitterness, no anger." Olmert was hoping that the primaries race between Livni and Mofaz would be forced into a run-off, giving him a few extra weeks at the helm...
