...made halting efforts to grab bin Laden's funds. The Clinton Administration issued an Executive Order targeting them in 1998 and froze the assets of Afghanistan's Ariana Airlines, which allegedly transported bin Laden's forces and equipment. But it never got bin Laden's money...

That settled it, as far as Mark Marion and Diane Sanchez, also of Coral Gables, were concerned. Their daughter Ariana, then 17, knew Carla, who was described in the local papers as the "poster child for spoiled teens." Ariana too had wanted a sports car for her 16th birthday, not an unreasonable expectation for a girl with a $2,000 Cartier watch whose bedroom had just had a $10,000 makeover. But Ariana's parents had already reached that moment that parents reach, when they wage a little war on themselves and their values and their neighbors and emerge with...

...hijackers, who support Afghanistan's anti-Taliban opposition, have released 10 hostages since arriving in London Sunday, after forcing the Ariana airlines flight to reroute from a domestic flight in Afghanistan, first to Uzbekistan and then to Moscow.
