...blame for Enron's collapse. A lawyer for the board called the report "very unfair," but it will be welcome news to shareholders seeking billions of dollars in compensation from Enron; they could get a legal boost from the 60-page document. The bipartisan study also raises the likelihood that one-time Enron board members will come under renewed pressure to resign directorships at other major corporations like Lockheed Martin and Qualcomm. Wendy Gramm has already stepped down from several of her board assignments, but her husband Phil, apparently carrying on his wife's mission, is leading...

...most notorious blows against American interests had taken place in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam, the sites of the 1998 embassy bombings, and in Yemen, where the U.S.S. Cole was bombed in October 2000. And in the first half of last year, the CSG monitored information suggesting the likelihood of another attack overseas. In June 2001, the State Department issued a worldwide caution warning American citizens of possible attacks. That month, says a recently retired senior FBI official, "we were constantly worried that something was going to happen. Our best guesstimate was something in Southeast Asia."
