...immigrants to begin building a life for themselves, and "forces some into illicit activity, like producing false documents, that offers support to terrorist organizations," says a Bologna prosecutor involved in terrorism investigations. "Immigration doesn't mean terrorism. Of course, the terrorist can take advantage of this movement and hide himself within the thousands of upstanding immigrants." Separating legitimate immigrants from would-be terrorists is the next challenge for Europe's intelligence agencies...
...prostitutes to break out of the business and build new lives. That line may work with constituents, but Lemettre and other social workers have slammed it as simplistic. "The government's position is: We'll never be able to eradicate prostitution, so let's do what we can to hide it from view," he says.

Our provisional conclusion is that these tubes were for rockets and not for centrifuges. They deny they have imported any uranium since 1991. [From] the U.S., the U.K. and others--we need...
...home to all but four of the Sept. 11 hijackers, Saudi Arabia had good reason to hide its p.r. offensive. A knowledgeable source tells TIME the alliance was created by the p.r. firm to disguise the role of the Saudis, who pay Qorvis more than $200,000 a month for its services. In a footnote to its Justice report, the firm said Riyadh helped fund the ads with a loan to the alliance, which was later repaid by a council representing Saudi business interests. But the source tells TIME most of the "repayments" came from businesses controlled by or close...
