...limits of its patience last week and closed the frontier to refugees not carrying visas. At 3:26 a.m. Tuesday, a train packed with ethnic Turks pulled into the Kapikule railway station, across the border from Bulgaria. At 6:10 a.m. the train began to move -- but in the wrong direction. Young refugees jumped from the windows and flung themselves on the tracks. Finally, at 8:54 a.m., the refugees were granted asylum. But that human cargo -- dubbed the Train of Shame by the Turkish press -- may be the last for some time to come...

...medical experts are skeptical. Warns Dr. E. Hakim Elahi, medical director of Planned Parenthood: "It's a wrong notion that abortion is very easy." He and others fear that cursory instruction will lead to medical complications. "There's no way that watching a video and seeing someone demonstrate this is going to make self-help procedures safe," declares gynecologist Michael Burnhill of the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick, N.J.

...other men are in a furor because a buddy has been killed in an ambush at a supposedly pacified village. Eriksson has an interesting speech in which he argues that the standard rationale for bad wartime behavior ("We might at any second be blown away") is exactly wrong. It is precisely because soldiers live inches from death that they should be "extra careful about what we do." The ending, in which Eriksson is awakened from his nightmare and, in effect, offered absolution by his trainmate, seems to propose that decent Americans may, at last, enjoy sleep untroubled by the naggings...
