...Some background: The decision to redeploy agents inside Yemen is being made with some trepidation. As we have reported before, a contingent of FBI agents investigating the October 2000 bombing of the USS Cole was abruptly pulled out of San'a in June 2001, because of what FBI officials termed a "specific and credible threat" on their lives and those of their local translators and security guards. Being in country wasn't worth the high risk, FBI headquarters officials decided, since Yemeni authorities were cooperating only "grudgingly and slowly," as one official put it. Officials believed some elements...
...worse. Yes, the rally we've been enjoying the past few weeks has been impressive, fueled by unexpectedly weak economic reports that have, for now, rubbed out inflation fears. Possibly this rally will persist and break the bear-market pattern. But it hasn't yet. Don't rush to redeploy all your cash...

That's what this conference tried to address." Clinton avoided calls from the left, including his own Labor Secretary Robert Reich, to take a more activist approach to combating stagnating wages and job insecurity. Earlier this year, Reich advocated reforming...
...entail the necessity of cracking down on fanatical settlers who live there and it will be a very ugly picture to have on the eve of Israeli elections," says Beyer. The pullout plan described in the Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement requires Israeli soldiers to leave Palestinian neighborhoods and redeploy in Jewish enclaves. Today only 450 Jews live in a city of 94,000 Palestinians, but that number could grow if hard-line candidate Benjaman Netanyahu is elected. However, a majority of Israelis support Peres on the pullout issue, says Beyer. "Most Israelis have a visceral feeling for the settlers because...
