...McCafferty and her readers.That said, we did recognize the uniqueness and sensitivity of the story, and we took special precautions to ensure we handled it as tactfully as possible. Although Viswanathan is, on the one hand, a public figure outside Harvard and within our gates, she is in another respect a student on campus and a private figure. We are fundamentally a community newspaper, and we knew that our story would be incredibly painful to a significant number of people, Crimson editors included, who are friends with the sophomore.But this does not change the newsworthiness of the story.

But al-Zarqawi, like others who subscribe to extremist schools of Islam, takes emulation literally. Among the examples Bakr cites is al-Zarqawi's tendency, modeled on the Prophet's, to "do everything from right to left: he puts on his right shoe first, washes his right hand...
...former infantry Marine who served under Newbold's broad command from '95 to '99, I would like to express my deepest respect and gratitude for his speaking out publicly. I supported the war in Afghanistan and was considering going back to the corps until the Administration started rattling the saber for Iraq.
