...might create new jobs, because before that happens, only the tourists can increase consumption in Germany. Jessica Neumann Berlin Exonerating Blair In your story on the conclusions of Lord Butler's report - that Tony Blair took Britain to war on a false premise but should nonetheless be absolved from blame [July 26] - you included a photo of an antiwar protester's banner that read BLAIR LIED, THOUSANDS DIED. The slogan is of course all wrong. Not only does it flagrantly contradict the facts of recent history in Iraq under Saddam Hussein, but it is also propaganda of the worst kind...
...bankruptcy as early as the beginning of next year. Big foreign banks are natural targets because they helped to arrange for about 80% of Parmalat's bank debt. In a confidential report for the Italian government seen by Time, Bondi and his team pin much of the blame for the company's collapse on "large-scale and ever more costly" financings arranged by banks, often through offshore tax havens. In other massive international bankruptcies, regulators and others have forced big settlements from enabling banks. After its bankruptcy, Enron sued its own lenders; that suit is pending.

...walked away with four years in jail and a masters' degree in criminology. A decade ago, in The First Stone, Garner lifted the lid off a famous sexual harassment case.

...authors of The 9/11 Commission Report hope they have sounded a call to battle. In official Washington, the arrival of the tome was greeted with a grim solemnity that reflected the panel's decision to apportion blame across dozens of agencies spanning two presidencies. Meticulous in its reconstruction of the attacks and unflinching in its conclusions about why the government failed to stop them, the report singles out the U.S.'s sprawling intelligence apparatus for an overhaul, hammering the nation's spooks for their inability to piece together Osama bin Laden's plot--and raising new doubts about whether they...
Instead of fewer than 20,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan and more than 135,000 in Iraq, there should have been 50,000 in Afghanistan and none in Iraq. Krauthammer shouldn't blame France for the dire situation in Afghanistan; France had nothing to do with it. RAFAEL MIRABAL-CONDE Caguas, Puerto Rico...
