...Marc Klaas, Polly's father, says that the name "John Karr never crossed my path in any way, shape or form" until Wednesday. He admits, however, that he gets a lot of e-mail from cranks, and might have deleted Karr 's missives. Still, he says, his experience with followers of sensational crimes leads him to doubt that Karr has anything to do with JonBenet 's murder. "With Karr, you're dealing with a guy who seems to be obsessed with little dead girls," says Klaas, pointing out that aside from the admission of guilt, Karr appears to have...
...brain surgery [July 24]: I again see the man I frequently admired on the television program Crossfire, someone with whom I disagreed politically but who was analytical and fair.

...path that radical British Muslims take between their suburban homes and Pakistan is by now as depressingly familiar as tales of those radicals' good nature. But it is of vital importance to understanding why Britain has become a key location for international terrorist activity. There are 745,000 people of Pakistani origin living in Britain, and no other nation in the developed world has to deal with the same flow of extremist information and ideologies that is transmitted into Britain, one way or another, from radicals based in Pakistan. "The big problem for the British," says a French official...
...Still, whatever the final image, Hizballah will have lost substantial ground militarily. It will be forced to cede control of southern Lebanon to the Lebanese Army, which it had previously resisted, and will have seen much of its capability to strike Israel with missiles neutered. The political path ahead remains perilous for a movement now forced to choose between its identity as an anti-Israel resistance and as a Lebanese political party and social movement. Although Hizballah won't put down its weapons immediately, the pressure to do so - or, at least, to put them under the control...
