...faced with a new global threat, that of terrorism from Islamist extremists, we could sure use some of that type of creative and bold thinking. What would George Marshall and Dean Acheson be doing now? At the top of their list, I suspect, would be forging a new version of NATO.

The efforts of a previous government task force were stymied by what the New York-based Human Rights Watch called...
...Armenians; by a gunman who shot him as he was leaving his office; in Istanbul. Dink angered many Turks by challenging the official version of how hundreds of thousands of Armenians died during World War I, insisting that the dead were victims not of famine but of genocide. A suspect, Ogun Samast, 17, was arrested...
