...Gibson movie (or a T.S. Eliot poem) does not make you an anti-Semite. But it does require that you ask just what you do and don't identify with in it. Apocalypto shows a rage against senseless war and bloodlust, but it also seems to revel in them, and it raises the question of when purity of belief can shade into intolerance. Borat is the funniest movie of the year, but it's reasonable to ask whether our culture has become so anti-p.c. that a racist comic can defend his rant, as Richards...
...provoke a change in thinking in how to deal with the p.k.k. Turkey had been urging the U.S. to help root out the group from northern Iraq. Last week Washington finally responded by naming retired General Joseph Ralston, the former nato Supreme Allied Commander in Europe, as a special anti-p.k.k. coordinator.

Li presided over Henan precisely when the local government was turning a blind eye to peasants contracting HIV by selling their blood, which was collected with tainted equipment. When the scandal was exposed four years ago, Li may have...
...According to a senior aide, however, the Chairman's remarks, to a gathering of his Fatah organization, were meant for local consumption only. Arafat, says the official, is furious with the group's secretary-general, MARWAN BARGHOUTI, who has led an anticorruption campaign within Fatah that culminated in an anti-P.A. riot in Ramallah last month. The ferocious rhetoric, says the source, was aimed at rallying Fatah activists behind Arafat. When Israeli Prime Minister BENJAMIN NETANYAHU vowed to freeze the land transfer until Arafat recanted, the Chairman, according to a confidant, regretted the remarks. It was U.S. special envoy...
