...means, let them be ashamed of their country’s despicable past errors. That embarrassment need not, however, be totally unconstructive. By openly and enthusiastically espousing an identity that breaks with the past, Germans can hope to define their own shared future.It’s unclear whether or not the flags will stay up here in Munich once the World Cup ends. If Harvard’s experience is any indication, the banners will return to their storage places and Germans will once again feel uncomfortable being seen as what they are: Germans. I certainly hope I haven?...
...Judy Baar Topinka, the current state treasurer and Blagojevich's Republican opponent in November's election, is not surprisingly among those who isn't buying the promises. "They present these program and plans, but the Governor's office jealously guards many details, leaving many in the legislature and others unclear about the real stakes here," said Topinka spokesman John McGovern. The critics' chief complaint is not that Blagojevich wants to insure all children or provide them with early education, but rather how it would be paid for at a time when the state is struggling financially...

The Bush Administration, which got a bump in the polls after al-Zarqawi's death, has talked for weeks about U.S. forces standing down as Iraqi forces stand up. With the Iraqi military and police up to 263,000-strong, some U.S. officers are privately saying it is time to start pulling American forces back. And some congressional Democrats renewed their calls for a pullout timetable...
...Iraq (a.k.a., al-Qaeda in Mesopotamia). He has been a long-standing commander of al-Qaeda in Iraq, having had positions as the emir in charge of Anbar province and the emir in charge of Samarra, north of Baghdad, where the shrine bombing occurred in late February. (It is unclear if he had a hand in that in that incident, which brought Iraq closer to a Shi'a-Sunni civil war than ever before.) Lately, says Abu Bara, Abu Abdul Rahman al Iraqi had been the "right hand" of Zarqawi in Al-Qaeda in Iraq. He has a reputation...
