Harvard, to its credit, regrouped after its dismal defensive effort and came out intent on winning the second game and getting back into the match...
Ganji gleefully cast such literary devices aside, however, when former President Rafsanjani joined the race for parliament earlier this year. Intent on bringing the powerful Rafsanjani "down to earth," he embarked on a searing interrogation in his newspaper columns, demanding that the candidate explain what he knew about the killings as well as why the eight-year war with Iraq, which killed more than 300,000 Iranians, was "unnecessarily" prolonged.

Although the case is closed, the verdict provided no sense of closure. Nor have public figures been able to offer an adequate explanation. The Diallo case has left America with a question mark--if the police...
