...international community to speak with one voice," perhaps via U.N. Security Council sanctions if a U.N. investigation implicates Assad's regime in Hariri's murder. When the U.S. ambassador to Iraq, Zalmay Khalilzad, warned Syria last week that "our patience is running out," Assad's Information Minister called the remark a "clear escalation in a chain of successive pressures on Syria." Sounds like somebody is getting the message. --By George Baghdadi, Scott MacLeod, Elaine Shannon and Adam Zagorin
...blown up by a roadside bomb in December, Sergeant Lizzie--who declines to share her full name--wrote about the event with the same bouncy style, flip asides, exclamation points and smiley faces. Describing herself under the destroyed truck, gashes on her face, she writes, "I made the remark that I wouldn't be pretty again LOL."

These are the techniques of a filmmaker short on trust, and the condescending tone rankles throughout. Sitting through Heaven...
...This time, Bush has been just as flatfooted. He couldn't seem to break off his schedule in San Diego, where he was commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Allied victory over Japan, while New Orleans filled like a bathtub. His remarks to the country from the Rose Garden yesterday about the Katrina disaster seemed oddly terse; his litany of aid meaningless without context. Sending five million military MRE meals sounded impressive until you realized there may be a million American refugees at this point. Does that mean we're only handing out five meals per person? And his interview...
