...cosmopolitan." I have news for Beinart. Many of the emigrants from the U.S.S.R. who came to the U.S. in the '70s and '80s support John McCain. A lot of us have undergraduate or graduate degrees. There is a simple reason for our choice: we already lived in a socialist country and left it. The U.S. surely would move in that direction should Obama win. Mikhail Godkin, San Diego, California...

...Those high stakes explain why the scandal has drawn rapt attention in France, where Strauss-Kahn is considered one of the opposition Socialist Party's sharpest minds - and a leading contender for a 2012 presidential bid. For now, however, the besieged IMF chairman finds himself at the center of a storm stemming from an acknowledged extramarital affair with IMF subordinate Piroska Nagy, who oversaw the organization's African department until she resigned in August of this year...

...Italy for Petrella's clearly critical health condition may strike some observers as tough. But it becomes more understandable against the broader history of Red Brigades fugitives enjoying refuge in France despite long-standing extradition treaties between the countries. France's official tolerance resulted from a deal that former Socialist President François Mitterrand extended in 1985 to Italy's left-wing terrorists: if they renounced violence, they could live in France under open-ended amnesty. Scores of former terrorists did just that, living openly and unmolested - much to the ire of authorities and terror victims in Italy...
