...opening of T5, as the new terminal is known, should help tackle another of BA's weaknesses: its much criticized hub. "BA has a fundamental challenge none of its European peers suffer from," says Chris Avery, an airline analyst at JPMorgan in London. "Heathrow is stretched to its limits." Conceived for 45 million passengers a year, it sees almost 70 million annually endure its crowded terminals and snaking lines.

It is easy to forget that Anbar is the one part of Iraq that is largely Sunni and thus doesn't suffer from the same kind of civil strife that upends order in other parts of the country. And if Anbar was truly secure and ready for a handover, Bush might be able to pull out the more than 20,000 Marines stationed in the province and send them elsewhere. In reality...
