...chicken franks, canned tuna and tomatoes--the 30-year-old rebel answers questions with a voice at once shy and calculating. Trying his best to toe the Western line, he assures us repeatedly, "We will live up to the obligations given to us." But as dinner stretches to midnight, Thaci begins to flag. Perhaps it is the endless days of negotiations with the U.S. or the months of war or just the barrage of journalists' questions about how exactly he hopes to fix this shattered land.

Last year the President invited both parties for talks at the White House to prod them into...

A twentysomething blond, she rants into a microphone as a Canon XL-1 digital video camera sends streaming footage of her to a few dozen Webcast viewers across the U.S. and Canada. With her free hand, she types responses to comments posted in the IRC (Internet relay chat) Netfiend room...
