Politicians and voters alike may be guided by faith, but that does not mean they will be led in the same direction. Cultural issues like gay marriage and abortion and school prayer now coexist with an even more pressing and divisive one: a war whose necessity is increasingly disputed and whose context, like it or not, is seen by some as a clash between faiths. However often Bush defends Islam as a religion of peace, his case for war now rests less on high-fiber geo-political arguments than on the suggestion that the 3rd Infantry Division be used...
...elections in June. Meanwhile, German conservatives have suggested a "privileged partnership" for Turkey instead of full-fledged membership, an idea Ankara rejects. Washington and London, for their part, want the E.U. to embrace Turkey as an example to other nations in the Middle East that Islam and democracy can coexist.

Many Kurds say they don't want full independence but insist on a great deal of autonomy, which the new interim constitution affords them. But the rival groups coexist warily. Saddam had expelled many Kurds from Kirkuk in his attempt to Arabicize the city. Now they're coming back to try to reclaim their homes. Haider Mohammed, 20, an Arab who studies at a local technical college, says Kurds in his neighborhood are pressuring Arabs to sell their houses...
