...making trouble for the U.S. in Iraq, supplying weapons to our enemies. These are all problems to be addressed soberly and perhaps even, eventually, with multilateral force. But the neoconservative campaign to transform Ahmadinejad into Hitler or Stalin, to pretend that he has the ability to destroy the world, to make a hoo-ha over letting the little man speak, is a cynical attempt to plump for war. Ahmadinejad may be ridiculous, but Podhoretz-who recently spent 45 minutes with Bush arguing for more war-isn't very funny...
Even as Baker examines every aspect of the store, he's careful not to destroy what many people love about it. (He says he receives hundreds of e-mails from Lord & Taylor shoppers along the lines of "Please don't mess with my store!") His sensitivity has won over supporters. "He is a great partner," says Elfers. "If I had sat down and written an ending for Lord & Taylor, I don't think I could have written a better one." Die-hard fans can only hope she's right...

To keep the air moving, squadrons of choppers fly low, a maneuver rendered yet more perilous because the valleys are crisscrossed with electricity cables...

Was the acquisition one more step towards Murdoch’s eventual media monopoly? Would the conservative mogul destroy The Journal’s objectivity? Would the acquisition spell the end of The Journal as we know it? We find much of this hype is ill-reasoned. Murdoch is at heart a businessman and as The Journal’s owner, he will be primarily interested in its success...
...history. I'm not seeking to denigrate the average soldier. There was a breakdown in that division and there was a breakdown from the top. And I think it had a lot to do with the war policy, which was basically body counts, kill ratios, search and destroy, free-fire zones - these concepts, when they are allowed to grow, grow out of hand. And they got out of hand in many cases. My Lai is one of them...
