...current post-Oslo political structure. Hamas’s success in government is central to short-term stability for Palestinians. This is also keenly true for Israelis, for the five-year intifada has proven repeatedly that Palestinian militancy is driven by economic instability and social frustration. If international donors follow through on their threat to cut aid to the Palestinian government, Hamas may be doomed to failure. But, the immediate consequences of an aid cut for the Palestinian people will overshadow the long-term consequences for the Hamas government. First, there will be a security meltdown, then the majority...
...makes an important statement about how the University believes all its community members should should treat each other. Harvard should not discriminate on the basis of any personal attributes or choices that do not adversely affect their job performance or contribution to the wider community.

Even those--men as well as women--who did not follow her every zig and zag over the past few years found themselves weeping last week. We have some sense of what she was, but we will never know what she might have become...
...requires five sequential steps, there are 120 pathways from the initial, unresistant bacteria to the later drug-resistant bacteria. The study found that of 120 pathways, only ten are feasible. Weinreich has generalized his results to argue that when bacteria independently develop resistance to the same drug, they likely follow similar, if not identical pathways. To visualize this result, picture Harvard Yard during a rainstorm. While a student might take several paths from Thayer to Sever Hall, a majority of these would be muddier than others. Just as most people will walk on the few paved paths between buildings, organisms...
...Would Bush be able to do what he did before, find the words, unite the country, set a course and follow it regardless of anyone's misgivings? There is anxious talk about war with Iran: could the President possibly make his case in a way that persuaded two-thirds of the public he was right, as he did three years ago on Iraq...
