I hope and pray that what we have in the ME is the equivalent of the period immediately before the dropping of the Iron Curtain, the demolition of the Berlin Wall, and the triumph of good sense.

Of course, there was Milosovic, Bosnia, Kosovo, Montenegro, Macedonia, etc., but on the whole things got better.

Ah, a little hope is nice, isn't it?

I hope the Sangiovese I'm about to imbibe is good.

Poor Muslims: Up to five wives and not a drop of wine. I'd be a bit murderous, too. VBG.

Ramzi Binalshibh captured in Karachi and now in US custody.

Slowly but surely and relentlessly these clowns will be hunted down like the dogs they are.

And good for Arik. No more Beirut "escapes." Finish them.

Suspected Sept. 11 Organizer Captured

washingtonpost.com

Ramzi Binalshibh, who allegedly helped plan and coordinate the Sept. 11 terror attacks on New York and Washington, has been captured and is in U.S. custody after surviving a fierce firefight in Karachi with Pakistani police on the anniversary of the assaults, intelligence and law enforcement sources said yesterday.

The arrest marks the end of an intense, yearlong manhunt for a suspect believed to be one of the few living conspirators in the Sept. 11 plot, and signifies a crucial advance in the largely frustrating campaign to apprehend leaders of Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda terrorist network.
