That alone makes their 2002 season one of the weirdest in baseball history. But it gets more absurd. Assuming the Expos wouldn't exist, baseball commissioner Bud Selig let owner Jeffrey Loria buy the Florida Marlins. When Loria went South, he took with him the Expos' manager, coaching staff, all the team's computers and a complete set of team uniforms--souvenirs of futility. Now the Expos are orphans, literally wards of the baseball state, property of the other 29 owners...
...take issue with your statement that "throughout the Muslim world, sympathy for the Palestinians and antagonism toward Israel" fuel the hatred of the U.S. The root of Islamic enmity toward Israel is a hatred of a non-Islamic country that has the audacity to exist at all in a region that Arabs consider Islamic and has succeeded economically where the Arabs of pre-Israel Palestine did not.

The guest list mingles affable cutups like Kevin Pollak with volatile screen lions like Rod Steiger, who seems ready to pop somebody. It's self-involved and amusing--and often both at once...
...than-ever hatred is poisoning both sides. Earlier this month Arafat aide Ahmed Abdel Rahman told the Israelis, "The air hates you, the land hates you, the trees hate you--there is no purpose in your staying on this land." Palestinian extremists who never accepted Israel's right to exist spearhead the suicide-bombing campaign, while Israeli tanks, under a Prime Minister who has always opposed the Oslo process, roll back into the patches of territory laboriously ceded to the Palestinians since '93. The knottiest of these issues may be the two stubborn old commanders, Sharon and Arafat. Both believe...
