Following the Irish rejection of the EU constitution, Poland is demurring. President Lech Kaczynski's approval is required as a last step under Polish law, and he has determined it would be "pointless" to sign on given the Irish rejection.
By the way, you have to love the dismayed New ...Read More...

The Times reports that Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, long suspected as being the main al-Qaeda operative behind the bombing of the destroyer, the U.S.S. Cole, that killed 17 members of the American Navy on October 12, 2000, has been referred for a war crimes trial by military commission. The government seeks ...Read More...

I wrote Tuesday about the ruling of the U.S. Court of Appeals from the DC Circuit which presumes to overrule the commander-in-chief's determination that a Uighur detainee — who received paramilitary training from an al Qaeda affiliate — is an enemy combatant.
At the Weekly Standard, Tom ...Read More...

In 2004, in the case of Boim v. Holy Land Foundation, a federal court in Chicago found Hamas supporters liable to the tune of $156 million in damages in connection with the death of an American who was killed in a Hamas terror attack.

MEMRI and Instapundit report that a Kurdistan newspaper has published (on its first page) a 2002 letter from Saddam Hussein's office, reaching out directly to al Qaeda's No. 2, Ayman Zawahiri, about the possibility of attacks in Saudi Arabia.

I have an article up today at NRO explaining why I think the imminent intelligence reform deal, though flawed, is a good one. It restores critical surveillance authority so that we'll be able to collect intel on our enemies overseas, and it grants immunity to the telecoms to encourage ...Read More...

So the big six-month treaty between Israel and Hamas has begun. Israel has committed to ease a blockade on Gaza. Hamas continues to be committed to Israel's destruction.

If this gem from the Minnesota Star Tribune doesn't make you ill, nothing will.

Congressional Quarterly provides this excerpt from Obama's AIPAC speech:
