Have I have forgotten how to meet people? Maybe I never knew, as my empty Rolodex and barren weekends seem to proclaim. What caused this disastrous social failure? I blame “network aversion...
...wrath of those already determined to harm us. They don’t hate us only because American women are free to live independent lives. They hate us because we have starved thousands of Iraqi children to death with our sanctions. They hate us because we so often proclaim our strength and superiority. And they will hate us even more as we keep bombing through the Islamic holy month of Ramadan which begins next Saturday.

...despite renewed political will, reviving the peace process remains as difficult as it is indispensable to Washington's wider agenda. Although Yasser Arafat has enthusiastically welcomed a more active U.S. role and has been quick to proclaim a new cease-fire, Tuesday's Hamas attack in Gaza is a stark reminder of the extent to which Arafat's political authority has ebbed over the past year.

...Taliban's rush to proclaim the innocence of their guest is hardly surprising, of course, since they may be first in line to suffer Washington's wrath - President Bush emphasized Tuesday that the U.S. will not differentiate between the perpetrators and those that have harbored them. But retaliation remains a complex challenge when terrorists act independently rather than on behalf of any state. Unlike the state-sponsored terrorism of the Cold War era, Bin Laden runs a self-financing "Islamist International" forged among like-minded fighters from throughout the Muslim world who earned their stripes as volunteers in the Afghan...
