...Supreme Court nominee John Roberts, whose vote with two of his colleagues on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the lower court's order, the tribunals are back on, with the trials of several alleged terrorists like Australian David Hicks and an alleged driver for Osama bin Laden expected to gear up in the fall. That is, of course, unless there's an appeal to the Supreme Court; Roberts, if he's on the court by then, would have to recuse himself from the case...

Then we can lock bin Laden up with Saddam Hussein, and the mission will be accomplished. In answer to the question of how long he would stay in his job at the CIA, Goss responded, "How long are we going...
...learn that the London bombers were, like the Madrid crew, a bunch of self-starter terrorists with few or no ties to bin Laden. U.S. and partner intelligence services have done such a good job running to ground members of the original group that there may be no connection with the remnants of al-Qaeda's command on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. We may also learn that the killers belong to a network being built by Abu Mousab al-Zarqawi, who has emerged in Iraq as bin Laden's heir apparent...
