...Iraqi Mandela to reconcile sectarian foes in pursuit of the greater good - or even an Iraqi Mubarak, the benign authoritarian leader of Egypt who enforces stability with an iron hand - may not have noticed that the forces unleashed and empowered by the U.S. invasion and its democratic aftermath render both options unlikely...
...take serious objection to your claim that Israeli setters built their illegal settlements on wasteland. They have built them on well-nurtured soil on which my ancestors shed sweat and blood. And the fact that these settlers have labored relentlessly to maintain this stolen property does not render null and void the fact that these territories were forcefully acquired and populated in defiance of explicit and unambiguous provisions of international and humanitarian law.

...enzyme in your liver that helps produce clotting factors. Its blood thinning (anticoagulating) effect comes on slowly but can quickly become (dangerously) greater than we want when you take different drugs or even different foods. The anticoagulation we want can easily overshoot - with dire consequences. It also can render ineffective or too effective, other drugs that are processed in the liver.

But his ambitious hopes to render nuclear weapons "impotent and obsolete" have been dramatically downsized. Reagan envisioned a network of satellites, sensors and even space-based weapons capable of thwarting a massive missile strike from the Soviet Union or China. But with the Cold War's end, the scale of the threat has also been reduced...
