...life" [Jan. 15] described the brutal indignity of Saddam's hanging. As a Christian, I don't think that we have to combat barbarity with more savagery. The execution, as I see it, was an act more of revenge and hatred than of real justice. The U.S. can't repair the historical errors of the partitioning of Middle Eastern countries by choosing who should rule them now. We Westerners are not the moral cream of the crop, and our arrogant meddling will only bring more turmoil, particularly in this sensitive region. Etienne Ribagnac Boynton Beach, Florida...

"This whole time, it just seemed a little ridiculous that he was pushing on with a case with so little evidence," says senior Alexander Danielides. "But I'm not surprised [that he's removing himself from the case.] I think it's something that should have happened a long time ago. And I think...
...must repair our image in our neighborhood and defy stereotypes about the Harvard bubble and its self-interested policies. The integrity of this institution rests not just on tallying up its Nobel Prize count, but also in the fair treatment of its workers and in its social and environmental responsibility to the community.
