Though Grasso's case is a civil action in state court, the study's findings are so dramatic that they make you wonder why he or any other defendant would let a jury near a case...

Little wonder that few Lebanese have much faith in the "cessation of hostilities" established by U.N. Resolution 1701 two weeks ago. As with past troubles in Lebanon, hopes for peace are bound up in wider regional, even global, disputes, like the Arab-Israeli conflict as well as the international standoff over Iran's nuclear program.
