...faces key challenges in defining a mission that contributes something new to the campus rather than competing with the mission of the Institute of Politics and in avoiding the fate of the now-defunct Harvard Social Forum, which similarly sought to unite advocacy groups. By carefully listening to the groups it seeks to serve and by focusing on the ways these groups can learn from each other and support each other’s initiatives, CPS just might help facilitate a stronger and more effective political community...
After an antic-filled sentencing trial in which 9/11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui mocked terrorism victims and issued calls to jihad, his fate goes to a jury this week.

Retired Marine Zinni has said the best outcome would be for Rumsfeld to resign rather than force Bush to fire him.

Two American contractors pulled from their home in broad daylight early last month were shown on Islamic websites being beheaded by militants loyal to al-Qaeda kingpin Abu Mousab al-Zarqawi. Their British colleague faced a similar fate. Two Italian women taken four weeks ago were also reportedly executed, though Rome would not confirm the claims. Ten employees of an Iraqi cell-phone company were abducted in Baghdad and Fallujah. That rebels could so easily stage such brazen attacks has left many observers questioning whether the U.S. can possibly...
