...week that "this year will prove to be the bloodiest for the foreign troops. It is not just a threat, we will prove it." He says he will soon be able to field some 10,000 soldiers, of which 2,000 are trained suicide bombers like the one who blew himself up at Bagram Air Force Base this morning. While his numbers may be large exaggerations, the Taliban have managed to briefly take two towns already this year, a chilling warning of things to come...
...heartbreaking fashion. Housman and Goffredo had both been present for that debacle, however, and both were determined not to let the Crimson suffer another disastrous loss to Princeton. Two free throws from Housman after another successful drive pushed the lead back to five, and after Tigers guard Marchus Schroeder blew a chance at a layup, Goffredo pulled up on the other end to nail a jumper.

...Madison Square Garden scenario is not an abstract threat. In 2003, a British-born Muslim blew himself in front of a nightclub next to the American embassy in Tel Aviv, killing three. A second bomber's device failed to go off. Perhaps more alarmingly, it turns out one of the bombers had worked at Heathrow Airport as a security guard. Only the British authorities can tell us whether he had the capacity to slip a bomb on an American airplane - or help us stop the next British suicide bomber...
