...Stubbs orders up a show of force--"to reassure the good guys and warn the bad guys." He commands his platoons to dismount and walk through the warren of trash-strewn alleyways around the mosque, starting with the most dangerous of them all, a street the Americans have dubbed Terrorist Café. It is lined with lean-tos and shacks that serve as teahouses and kebab stalls, some of them patronized by leaders of the Sunni militant groups that have turned Adhamiya into a hotbed of insurgency in the Iraqi capital--a "Little Fallujah in the middle of Baghdad...
There was good news as well. A landmark study at Columbia University showed that women taking aspirin at least four times a week for three months cut their risk of developing breast cancer 30%.

In response, the spooks whispered that the President's aides were too quick to blame the agency for their own mistakes of judgment. The agency had repeatedly warned both the current Administration and its predecessor about bin Laden, they said; the agency's doubts about the existence of WMD were not hidden (if you looked deeply enough into the footnotes of the intelligence community's official estimates on Iraq); and although the details of the CIA's warnings...
