...will the Bush team sail on its current tack? Hard to say, especially given the many signs of division between Powell's State Department, on the one hand, and Vice President Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld's Pentagon, on the other. But just as America shouldn't summon into existence the threats it wants to defend against, Europe shouldn't hasten a rift it doesn't want by talking up the danger to the Atlantic alliance. These are still early days. Bonds built over more than five decades shouldn't be called into question, even rhetorically, after 15 weeks...
...Among the special opportunities at Harvard are the Houses, the sense of community that they develop and the interactions that occur among undergraduates, between undergraduates and graduate students and between students and faculty.

Suicide bombing may not be part of U.S. military culture, but it's not hard to find jihad-kamikazes in the "rogue" states.

They've said the terrorist threat is far greater from a suitcase bomb than from someone launching an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). It's a lot easier, for example, to sail a boat to 200 miles off America's shores and then launch a nuclear tipped cruise missile flying below the radar, using a GPS (global positioning system) for guidance - and the missile defense scheme would not cover that threat. Why would anyone go to all the trouble and expense...
