...semester is upon us; new classes, new notebooks, new opportunities. The stress of the end of the fall semester has been abated, and Harvard students are looking forward to a fresh start.

Last month, as Defense Secretary Robert Gates was visiting, the Pakistan military's chief spokesman said there were no plans to launch fresh offensives for at least six months, if not a year. That was a pretty blunt "No" to the Americans.
