...praise heaped on Bush for his handling of 9/11 also had to reinforce his faith in his instincts. Even the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung saw Bush growing into his role as world leader. "Before our eyes," the paper said a month after the attacks, "the 55-year-old former Governor has become grayer, more profound and more sure-footed." The attacks only deepened Bush's impulse to trust in strength for its own sake, particularly given that earlier al-Qaeda attacks had drawn only limited response and thus perhaps emboldened Osama bin Laden. "Al-Qaeda underestimated us, see," Bush...
...their backers is fruitless, as they do not honor their promises. The U.S. and other Western governments should not negotiate with the mullahs. Instead, they should help the youth of Iran bring an end to the mullahs' regime and drain the terrorists' source of money.

Tax authorities in the U.S. and Britain began to pursue those royalties, so Wodehouse fled to the northern French resort of Le Touquet. There in May 1940 he was seized by the German army. For 13 months he was held in a succession of camps, where fellow inmates report that he helped keep morale high and shared his worldly goods with them. Shortly before being freed, he agreed to give five radio talks for his fans in the U.S., which...
...newspaper comic motif also smartly matches the form of No Towers. The German newspaper that originally commissioned the project gave Spiegelman an unheard-of deal in these days of ever-shrinking funnies: an entire full-color page with total editorial freedom. The book nearly replicates their original monumental size on super thick cardstock paper. You read each strip horizontally across two pages but thanks to the clever binding, each strip lies flat, without an annoying gutter in the middle...
