...reaching. The low-wage jobs that have already been terminated once belonged to valuable members of our community, who obtain their health insurance and continuing education as benefits of working at Harvard. Having lost their employment, these people are now not only without income but also forced to enlist themselves and their families among the ranks of the uninsured and undereducated. The fact that many of these jobs belonged to the poor, marginalized, and mostly immigrant part of our community means that their unemployment will further contribute to the isolation and depression of many of our Boston- area neighborhoods. This...
...servicemen and servicewomen to escape punishment for crimes committed abroad. Green's lawyers (as well as several military-law experts) have maintained that MEJA was never intended to cover cases like his, but, in August, U.S. District Judge Thomas Russell upheld its constitutionality.

Gates canned both of them, blaming them for the Air Force's sloppy handling of nuclear weapons, although their vocal support of the F-22 program angered Gates' inner circle.

Meanwhile, Michael Wynne, the ousted secretary, was left to grumble in the blogosphere that Gates' blueprint is a "searing indictment of America...
...Syria. And early success on the Israel-Syria track would do wonders for the Administration's wider Middle East ambitions. Not only would it formally cement the 40-plus years of relative calm on the Israeli-Syrian frontier, it would potentially detach Syria from its alliance with Iran and enlist Damascus in moderating or eliminating two key radical elements - Hamas and Hizballah - on Israel's borders. Iran's resulting loss of influence in the region could, in turn, help induce Tehran to rethink its more confrontational positions, particularly on the nuclear issue...
