...globalization cannot be reduced to 600-800 words. Thomas Friedman, recognizing the limitations of his column, wrote a full-length book on globalization to fill in the gaps of analysis left in the interstitial spaces between his previous columns. Then he did it all over again.News stories do, however, differ from columns. Here the problem is not poor and hasty analysis (although Bush, in fact, does refer to the media as a “filter” of the news). Instead the type of news found in newspapers, on the radio, and on television can act as a distraction...

Considered a p.k.k. offshoot, the t.a.k. boasted in a written statement that "we have promised to turn monstrous Turkey into hell," with "more actions, bigger blows." Aydar told Time last week that the p.k.k. and t.a.k. differ in their underlying philosophies and do not collaborate on operations: "We are not responsible for what they do." Whether masterminded by the core p.k.k. or a splinter group, the bombs mark a troubling departure in tactics. They are the first by the p.k.k. or any of its offshoots to target civilians...
