...benefit they play My Sweet Little Terrorist Song, a sly lament about Iran's inclusion in President George W. Bush's "axis of evil": "I just wanna watch Dylan live./ I won't fly into the Pentagon alive." Some of their songs can be read as cries for political change, but like everything else here, they are ambiguous enough to be easily defendable in a courtroom, should it come to that. As I sat in 127's practice bunker, I caught myself wondering, Where were you when I lived here? As recently as three years ago, it was still somewhat...

After an initial report on an Islamic website asked Muslims to "pray for the recovery of our Sheik Abu Mousab al-Zarqawi from an injury he suffered for the sake of God," reports flew rapidly, many contradictory: he had been wounded by gunfire in the lungs, or shrapnel hit his stomach and legs; he was hurt in a clash with U.S. forces a month ago and spotted...
...when the country needs them most. Iraq's higher education system is slowly being rebuilt, with the aim of training the country's best and brightest to reconstruct a society shattered by tyranny, sanctions and war. But violence has jeopardized those hopes. Academics have become a favored target for terrorist groups aiming to destabilize Iraq and for kidnapping gangs looking for soft targets. A recent nationwide U.N. study says 48 academics have been assassinated. Taher al-Bakaa, who was Iraq's Minister for Higher Education under former Prime Minister Iyad Allawi, puts the number at 66.
