...Howard Zinn, in his book "Terrorism and War" (Seven Stories Press; 159 pages; $9.95) makes many of the same points as Chomsky (and in the same interview format), but in a tone more of sorrow than of anger: he comes off as Chomsky Lite. "We have to think about this awful thing that happened on September 11," Zinn states. "We need to feel deeply for the victims and the families. But we also need to learn from it." Part of the learning process is to try to make an effort to understand why those people contemptuously (and simple-mindedly) dismissed...

Laura Bush, traveling in Europe with presidential confidant Karen Hughes, said, "I think it is very...
...India seems to have calculated correctly. While expressing concern at the prospect of war, U.S. President George W. Bush has said he understands India's anger and frustration. European Union external affairs commissioner Chris Patten, who visited New Delhi and Islamabad last week, described India's patience as "stretched almost beyond breaking point" and the situation as on a "knife edge." Bush has stopped short of publicly admonishing Pakistan, Washington's key ally in the war on terror, but he's dispatching burly Undersecretary of State Richard Armitage to Islamabad next week, and his mission will be to deliver...
