...Sabrina K. Blum ’03 and Joy B. Fairfield ’03 would struggle with elements of time as well. Cabaret first debuted on Broadway in 1966, was reincarnated as a movie in 1972, and revived on Broadway by director Sam Mendes in 1998.

Saddam and his most loyal troops in Baghdad and his hometown of Tikrit would be key targets. "The U.S. is going to be applying some pretty awesome military technology," says Steven Simon, assistant director of London's International Institute of Strategic Studies.
