...living in foreign lands. Host countries should conduct a survey of Muslim noncitizens. If any complain they are not happy, the host country should ship them back to their native country free of charge. Jeannie V. Didal Davao City, the Philippines From what I have been told, most non-European and nonwhite minorities in the West experience derogatory treatment.

And the U.S., which began lobbying for sanctions when Iran failed to heed the U.N. Security Council demand that it cease enriching uranium by August 31, may have little choice but to give European diplomacy more time. Even key European allies have little appetite for a confrontation beginning with sanctions - particularly while Iran is offering a diplomatic alternative, however imperfect, for pursuing the same goals...
