...that the average four-person U.S. family eats in an entire week. Fresh bread and fish are also absent. With the exception of meat, most foods are processed. Counting Ragú sauce as a serving of vegetables is just a gimmick. It's no wonder that American diet books recommend reading food labels. Maybe it would be wise to recommend food with no labels: fresh fruits, vegetables, fish and bread. I lived in the U.S. for two years, and I know that healthful foods are available, even in supermarkets. People simply do not buy them. Price may be the reason...
...change our advice to cancer patients, which is to eat a variety of vegetables and fruits everyday," says Marji McCullough, director of nutritional epidemiology at the Society. "We do encourage people to eat tomatoes and tomato products because they may reduce the risk of certain cancers, but we recommend that in the context of a diet rich in a variety of deeply colored vegetables and fruits.

That could spur U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon to recommend dispatching a U.N. observer mission to monitor the porous frontier. Such a decision will anger Damascus, which has repeatedly stated its opposition to an international presence along its border with Lebanon. It will further add pressure on the Palestinian bases, which are linked to Syria via numerous remote trails that criss-cross the mountainous border. The Lebanese...
There's a lot to recommend this view. For starters, it gets jihadism right. Al-Qaeda-- style terrorism does stem more from state breakdown than state power. (Compare pre- and post-Saddam Iraq.) The weak-state concept also makes Democratic foreign policy broader than its Republican equivalent. In Bush-esque speeches this spring, Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani tried--unconvincingly--to cram virtually all of American foreign policy into the war on terror.
