...victims and bounds out of sight into the darkness. Some say it's a monster with a black monkey face and human legs, possibly with coil springs on its feet. Or a robot invader with steel claws. Just possibly, the marauder is a half-human spy in an iron mask from neighboring Pakistan sent to destabilize the Indian capital...
...leadership seems willing or able to find a way out. Sharon called the deaths a "horrific murder" and ordered a missile strike on Yasser Arafat's Fatah offices in Gaza City, which wounded 20 Palestinians. But Sharon is caught between his hard-line constituents' demands to raise an iron hand against the Palestinians and the outside world's pleas to pursue a diplomatic solution.

They unspooled kilometers of razor wire around the palace; under the venerable trees of its garden marines dug in with .50-caliber machine guns. "Let them come. I'll crush them...
...Arroyo seems pleased by her show of toughness. "I hope they now realize that this 'wisp of a lady' has an iron fist and an iron will," she crows. Others think she overreacted, considering the demographic profile of the poor, angry protesters and their fury over her treatment of Estrada. (To arrest the former President, she deployed over 5,000 security forces, backed by helicopters and rooftop snipers after Estrada had volunteered to turn himself in.) Says Uderic Auduan, a print shop owner who supported Estrada on the streets: "Estrada was someone who can help us?and they treated...
