...commander in chief sees the world as you do—even those whose worldviews contain shades of gray. I know this because I have spoken with many of them, some of whom are close friends and family members. Many are Jews who have grown frustrated at the steady stream of terrorism in Israel. Others are New Yorkers, who witnessed first-hand the slaughtering of innocent fellow citizens. Still others, knowing nothing of terrorism beyond what they’ve seen on TV, look to someone (anyone) resembling a strong leader in hopes that they’ll keep them...
Lively Bamako, the capital of Mali, might not have shops selling the latest iPods. Nonetheless, its streets spill over with a steady stream of tunes on tap, played by some of West Africa's greatest musicians. Like Havana, this city of 1 million lives for music.

Today, fruit and vegetables are trucked in from hours away. It's a scene repeated across...
...signs of ending, opposition to Arafat is spreading to the street. A leading Arafat critic, former Minister Nabil Amr, was shot in the leg by a gunman last week; reformers took it as at least a warning from Arafat loyalists. In Gaza, Arafat's Fatah faction issued a stream of leaflets accusing his henchmen of corruption and violence. Most of the vitriol was aimed at Arafat's cousin Moussa, whom he named this month to head the National Security Forces. The leaflets also accused Arafat of siphoning off public money to his wife, who lives in Paris--a rare personal...
