Absent fathers to be named and shamed

Sunday Telegraph Another interpretation is 'Stay but don't screw up' It sounds like the Iraq Study Group says 'get out of Iraq', right? I'd say it sounds more like "stay in Iraq". Only this time, don't screw up, argues Niall Ferguson.

Iraqi president attacks Baker report

The question is: do we stay or do we go? The Iraq script is the same, but the audience has lost interest. And the President and Prime Minister are politicians enough to know that this is the case, says Matthew d'Ancona.

Why the generals have to speak out
Friends in the Army are quick to point out that they are not like other elements of the public services: they genuinely do put their lives on the line for Queen and Country. But when soldiers of the calibre of these two generals are speaking out, it is time for the country to listen, says Col Tim Collins.

What they have said about Foreign Press Review
"FPR'ın iki "kötü" özelliği var: 1. Alışkanlık yaratıyor, onsuz yapamaz hale geliyorsunuz; 2. Değeri alındığı değil, arada bir de olsa, alınamadığı vakit anlaşılıyor. Bir de sürekli bir kaygıya yol açıyor; 'Ya bir gün kesilir ve onu hiç alamazsam' duygusuyla sürekli yaşamak kolay değil."

Cengiz Çandar
