...Twelve and a half years ago, when the corpses in these mass graves were still fresh, the arrest of Radovan Karadzic might have made a difference. True, the world knew even then that the so-called president of the breakaway Serb region of Bosnia and Herzegovina was more the foreman than the architect of the worst massacres in Europe since World War II: the siege of Sarajevo, which killed at least 10,000 people, and the slaughter at Srebrenica, which killed more than 7,000 men, some of whose bodies had filled the site at Glogova. It was former Yugoslavian...
President Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative has had a stunningly paradoxical effect on arms control.

Before the compromise was reached, ABC had planned to share about nine minutes of its 17 1/2-hour coverage with its competitors; now the network estimates it will share about 16 minutes. CBS, NBC and CNN seem satisfied, though at least one executive still believes that ABC has overplayed its role...
...case from this point on will be left to the couple's own private detectives. As a result of the Attorney General's announcement, the McCanns' lawyers should get access to the Portuguese police files later this week, with the hope that those detectives can tease out fresh leads. For the McCanns, who are still confident that Madeleine is alive, the relief and pain are combined with a steely determination. Kate promised to "leave no stone unturned" in the search for their daughter. "We will never give up on Madeleine," she pledged today...
