...deeper. The superb training and motivation of our professional officer and noncommissioned officer corps are pivotal factors that have long distinguished America's military. The technical and tactical competence of our personnel, combined with their leadership skills, is what gets the job done. And don't forget another key element: the ingenuity of the American G.I.

...commentary "Awfully Ordinary," about how bin Laden looked on the tape, Lance Morrow called him "the John Gotti of jihad" for his delusion of self-importance [ESSAY, Dec. 24].

Why stand a computer on its side when it really wants to be horizontal and on the ground? Let each element be what...
Mark's campaign was a key element in a broader process that has changed Israel's handling of Holocaust survivors profoundly. The survivors' tale is one of neglect, penny-pinching and shame. Finally, Israel is being forced to accept responsibility for its 300,000 Holocaust victims - not just for their mental health but also their overall wellbeing. A parliamentary commission last April ordered Israeli banks to audit dormant accounts that may belong to Holocaust victims. Ministry of Justice officials tell Time they're hiring a group of former police investigators to locate heirs to abandoned properties whose European owners died...
