...government of Dominica filed suit against Citibank in July, accusing it of extracting "secret profits" of about $1.8 million from the transaction, on a bond issue that lacked proper security and provided, in effect, only $14.2 million in financing, the lawsuit alleges. Citibank is expected to submit its formal response in the case next month. Dominica's airport, hampered by bureaucratic struggles, has not been built...
Taking the Iraq issue back to the UN last month allowed the Bush Administration's hawks and doves to finally speak in a single voice: Saddam would have to submit to UN disarmament resolutions, or else. But the unsatisfactory (for the President) workings of diplomacy in New York and the favorable tide of politics in Washington D.C. have now conspired to throw up a new question for the President to answer: Is the U.S. position an ultimatum to the UN itself to accept U.S. terms for Iraqi disarmament, or else step aside...
...When Saddam offered two weeks ago to submit to unfettered inspections, the Security Council's response was to send UN inspection chief Hans Blix to Vienna to discuss practical arrangements for resuming such inspections.

...Reality TV is returning to its natural home, which is the American political system," says R.J. Cutler, who produced the documentary The War Room about the 1992 Clinton campaign.

Then the audience will winnow the field in a process involving debates and politicking (but, please God, not Ryan Seacrest). The winner will be chosen during an on-air "convention" around July 4, then decide whether...
...rallying an international consensus against Iraq that it left Saddam Hussein with little choice but to do what he rarely does: concede something. In a letter to U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan, Iraq announced that after four years of blowing off inspections, it was now ready to submit to them "without conditions." That left the war camp in an awkward dilemma. Can you convince the world it needs to get rid of a bully if the bully suddenly appears to be playing nice? And it left those less than eager for an invasion with the responsibility to prove exactly what...
