...make them meaningless. Booming oil prices have improbably strengthened Saddam's hand, to the point that even Washington may be cautious about provoking Baghdad into turning off the taps on the 3 million barrels it pumps daily and driving up world oil prices even further. And the anti-American rage that has swept the Arab world in response to the Israeli-Palestinian violence makes it even harder for Washington to consider any punitive action against Baghdad, giving Saddam plenty of within which to challenge the U.S. and Britain. The Butcher of Baghdad appears to have seen off the Bush...
...where popular music is becoming increasingly polarized between the catchy, navely sexual tunes of Britney and Christina and the unabashed rage of Eminem and Limp Bizkit, it is nice to know there are still a few rock bands out there to fill the middle ground. The Foo Fighters, under the direction of Dave Grohl, have managed to update their sound in tune with the times on each of their three releases.

Oh and as you turn another page, don't clench your hands in fists of rage. If you stay up past three, you still might get a B. But as you study late into the night, your heart will become filled with spite. 'Cause I saw TF's laughing with delight, the day midterms arrived...
Arafat was thoroughly on the defensive, beset too by the frustration building up among his people. And they have often resorted to rage. Rock throwers in the street have a number of tactical attractions. In the asymmetric struggle with the mighty Israeli army, the Palestinians would appear the victims. That would galvanize sympathetic Arab and European pressure behind his cause. A judicious level of violence had wrung Israeli concessions before: the Jerusalem tunnel uprising in 1996 had forced Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to follow through on a delayed territorial withdrawal. And it could serve as a safety vent...
