...this thesis, it would contradict my thesis. My thesis is that this is a war and it's a war with very real casualties, so if I just got lots of pats on the head from The Financial Times and The Economist, then I suppose my thesis would be wrong. So I can't complain...

...been made and point out that an election isn't due until 2010. But there's a clear temptation to secure a new five-year term before global financial turmoil can do too much damage to Britain's economy, and while Conservatives and Liberal Democrats flounder. Brown has wrong-footed his opponents who expected him to move Labour to the left. Instead he has co-opted advisers from across the political spectrum, strengthening Labour's claim to the center ground. Liberal Democrats spent much of their own September conference, in the south-coast resort of Brighton, locked in private debates...

Paul Rusesabagina, the central character in the film Hotel Rwanda - in which he shelters Tutsis in Kigali's Mille Collines Hotel - accuses Kagame, a Tutsi, of pursuing vengeance. "Everything has been taken over by the Tutsi. The Hutu ... are intimidated." And it was two Rwandan army invasions in the late 1990s into the Democratic Republic of Congo, in pursuit of fugitive Rwandan génocidaires...

...that the planes be capable of autorotating (as the maneuver is called), with unpowered but spinning helicopter blades slowly letting the aircraft land safely. That decision, a top Pentagon aviation consultant wrote in a confidential 2003 report obtained by TIME, is "unconscionable" for a wartime aircraft.
