...emerged from the urinals. The men decided, as they finally relieved themselves, that either the tiled bathroom held a secret trap door, or the rumor was true that President Bush had been holding in an adjacent room, and his security did not want to risk someone dropping a cherry bomb down the toilet...
...central Baghdad neighborhood of Mansour, which has also seen heavy clashes between Awakening groups and al-Qaeda over the past two years, residents say the insurgents are also introducing new tactics. On Saturday, a bomb exploded in a small storefront, after police and a crowd had gathered in response to the shooting assassination of the shopkeeper and his son.

Nonetheless, many consider McCain a hawk and fear his experiences as an American POW in the Vietnam War may hardwire him for hostility towards revolutionary governments. All Iranians seem aware of McCain's "Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran" Beach Boys imitation, and many take it as an indication of his inclinations. Yet many anti-regime Iranians are praying - albeit quietly - for a McCain victory. Some Iranians believe that Ahmadinejad also favors McCain, in the belief that continued confrontation with the U.S. - as long...
