...think I?m a European director. I love America. I?ve lived here for a long time. But when I first came and made my first movie in America I realized I was not an American director and I was never going to be an American director. And that freed me to be able to look at America in my own way. And I do think if you are a foreigner that you have a privileged view of things. I like that position. It?s obvious in my films how much I love America but I don?t think that...
Though Dershowitz never actually called for targeted killings, he devoted much of his article to defending Israel’s assassination of the Black September attackers and arguing that attempting to arrest them would not have been successful. He pointed out that several nations had freed hijackers—instead of extraditing them to Israel or the U.S.—in the years before the attacks, and that Germany released the surviving Black September terrorists less than two months after Munich...
...stems, strangely, from 9/11. As the FBI turned more of its attention and manpower to counterterrorism, the bureau handed off most of its drug-related inquiries to the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Hoxby, the Freed professor of economics, said construction projects will place the most pressure on the budget—$71.6 million in expenses in 2010. But Kirby’s initiative to grow FAS to 750 professors by 2010 is stretching the budget as well, she said, to the tune of $28.5 million...
FEDERAL OFFICIALS DISSEMINATED TO "COOPERATIVE NEWS sources" a blind memorandum stating that the "result of King's famous espousal of nonviolence was vandalism, looting and riot." The lapse from nonviolent discipline in Memphis freed the FBI from the inhibitions that the public's respect for King's conduct if not his message had imposed, and opened the way for character assassination on all fronts. By the next day, March 29, FBI director J. Edgar Hoover approved a second effort "to publicize hypocrisy on the part of Martin Luther King." The document whiplashed him as cowardly and violent, servile and uppity...
