...Reid from succeeding and probably saved almost 200 lives, but it did little to assuage my tragic thoughts when I boarded a transatlantic plane at the beginning of intersession a month later. As red-clad Virgin Atlantic stewardesses went up and down the aisles demurely serving dinner, a heretofore-unknown seriousness seemed to creep into the sides of their smiles. If there is indeed a war on terrorism, they were the newest foot soldiers; the hardness in their eyes reflected the fact that tackling terrorists was now a part of their job description. I’m sure you didn?...
...Reid?s British passport reveals, consistent with Reid?s own post-arrest statements, that starting on July 12, 2001, he traveled from Belgium to Israel, to Egypt, to Turkey, and finally to Pakistan, before leaving that country for an unknown destination on August 14, 2001. His passport also indicates a second trip to Pakistan on November 20, 2001, with an exit from that country on December 5, 2001. Airline records disclose that he flew from Karachi to Belgium.

Sixteen drugs were subsequently withdrawn from the market, but not before millions of people had been exposed. Seven of those drugs had side effects so serious they were cited as possible contributing factors...
...Banda Aceh, the people have welcomed them. Some 400 families used to live here but more than half moved away in the past 18 months as the conflict worsened. Recent clashes between soldiers and rebels have sent villagers fleeing in terror and, only days before, the corpses of two unknown men?slit from belly to throat and eviscerated?were fished from the nearby Kuala Bayan River. The military is now building a small post at Sarah Tebe. "I'm very glad the TNI has come," says M. Kasim, a 75-year-old former brickmaker living with his extended family. "They...
