...modern world, El Niño is a change in wind patterns and ocean currents that occurs every few years, bringing warmer water to the normally cool eastern Pacific; the result is major changes in storms and other weather effects, along with a temporary spike in global temperature.

Larger classes will decrease the amount of quality and care afforded to students at present, an option that our already-struggling public school system cannot afford to see come to fruition. A decrease in the quality of education now will amplify over the years to result in an unwelcome decrease in the number of citizens capable of contributing and engaging with an increasingly competitive global economy.

That is not a result the U.S. wants. The Americans blame the young Haqqani warlord Sirajuddin for the most lethal attacks, many of them by suicide bombers, on NATO forces around Kabul. U.S. intelligence suspects that the Haqqanis are sheltering dozens of al-Qaeda fighters...
