...After backtracking on Katsav, Mazuz will face tough scrutiny over the decision, due in the next few weeks, as to whether to indict the Prime Minister on charges of illegal property deals and conflict of interest. The prospect of scandal, along with Olmert's ill-conceived war in Lebanon last summer, have turned Israel against him. Polls give him a near-zero approval rating.

"Judging from their behavior, they have no shame," says former Justice Minister David...

A plot to bomb central London was foiled yesterday, not by police or the security services but by one of the world's most effective counter-terrorism agents: luck.

...Ahmadzai is no conspiracy minded country bumpkin; he's a former prime minister, educated in the US and the UK. While it's clear that NATO and coalition forces have absolutely no intention of killing civilians, the fact that otherwise intelligent Afghan opinion makers have been persuaded of foreign ill intent marks an alarming trend in Afghanistan. Few Afghans outside of the South, where the insurgency rages the strongest, want the foreigners to leave just yet, but there has been a strong push in Parliament for reconciliation with the Taliban.
