...ardent nationalist and former rector of the St. Petersburg-based Baltic Mechanical Engineering University ( who was personally placed under sanctions by the U.S. government back in 1999 for letting Iranian students in on sensitive military-related research), Savelyev is an expert on explosions who happened to be present in Beslan during the tragedy. Later, he became a member of the official parliamentary investigative commission on Beslan, which has yet to present its report...
...Democratic political base. About a year ago, when party pollster Mark Mellman, who does not work for Senator Clinton, asked a focus group of 10 African-American women to name their all-time political hero, eight picked Hillary, he says. But the Clinton opposition is at least as ardent.

A report last month by the Bush Administration's Commission For Assistance to a Free Cuba warns, "No issue will be more fraught with difficulty and complexity" during the post-Castro transition - even if democracy...
...whatever the consequences for Lebanon. I see posters of Nasrallah plastered on private cars and police motorcycles, and the yellow of the Hizballah flag darts across my vision wherever I look. The support is genuine - the average Syrian is much more passionate about the Palestinian cause than the most ardent Lebanese - as is the anger at Israel, and at the United States. But it is a targeted anger...
