...terrorism get? Clarke says that dealing with al-Qaeda "was in the top tier of issues reviewed by the Bush Administration." But other topics got far more attention. The whole Bush national-security team was obsessed with setting up a national system of missile defense. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld was absorbed by a long review of the military's force structure. Attorney General John Ashcroft had come into office as a dedicated crime buster. Rice was desperately trying to keep in line a national-security team--including Rumsfeld, Cheney and Secretary of State Colin Powell--whose members had wildly...

During Wednesday's farewell ceremonies, U.S. Brigadier General Donald Wurster declared the mission "an absolute success." In a piece of agitprop reminiscent of mid-century American police actions, the U.S. is both leaving and returning simultaneously: in the same breath as declaring victory, American officials said 80 to 100 special forces agents will remain in Basilan through October, when more U.S. soldiers will...
...things I learned in Vietnam is that if a terrorist doesn't lose, he wins." MAX CLELAND, U.S. senator, grilling Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld on America's continued failure to capture Osama bin Laden...
