...subway stops from downtown, upstairs from a McDonald's, are the offices of the seven-week-old Iraq Reconstruction and Development Council. A pet project of Wolfowitz's, the organization consists of a group of exiled Iraqi technocrats sympathetic to Chalabi who have been feverishly planning how to restart everything from irrigation to trash collection to oil production as soon as the fighting stops. When they get the word from Garner, they will deploy as liaisons between his temporary American ministers and those Iraqis deemed salvageable from Saddam's sprawling bureaucracy. Over a period of three to six months...
...Britain. Stevens delivered his report just as the British and Irish governments are trying to revive Ulster's flagging peace process by persuading the I.R.A. to retire voluntarily. The province's power-sharing government has been suspended since a web of I.R.A. spies was exposed last year. To restart it, the onus is on the I.R.A. to prove its war is over.

"I am happy to go to jail for it," he says. - By Jan Stojaspal House ahoy! Road ahoy! The Netherlands After centuries of finger-in-the-dike battles to keep water...
...refused to engage Pyongyang further until it gave up its enrichment program. In November the U.S. led the way to stopping shipments of fuel oil promised to North Korea under a 1994 nonnuclear accord. North Korea's response, as U.S. allies in Asia had predicted, was to move to restart its original--and much more dangerous--plutonium nuclear-weapons plant. The North Koreans now appear to me to be headed toward production of nuclear weapons from this plant as rapidly as possible in an effort to assure their security, having been convinced by hard-liners, probably in the military, that...
