Abducted Girl's Relatives Say Her Captor Brainwashed Her By Nick Madigan Salt Lake City, March 16 - With prosecutors expected to file charges soon against a nomadic homeless couple in the disappearance of Elizabeth Smart, her family waged a concerted effort today to portray her as having been incapable of escape during months of wandering streets and canyons almost within sight of her home. Responding to increasingly direct questions about what happened to Elizabeth, now 15, after she was taken at knifepoint from her bed on June 5, relatives attending a church service this morning took pains to explain that, while they had not pressed Elizabeth for details, they were certain she had been left brainwashed by the man she knew as Emmanuel." http://www.nytimes.com/2003/03/17/national/17UTAH.html
Law: Probing priest dad was not my job by Robin Washington 3/14/03 "In his latest deposition, Bernard Cardinal Law said he was ``terribly outraged'' to learn a priest in his archdiocese had fathered children with a woman and failed to assist her when she was dying of a drug overdose, but said it was not the archbishop's responsibility to make sure the case was investigated." http://www.bostonherald.com/news/local_regional/chur03142003.htm

U.S.'S Image Fast Eroding With War Plans - In Preparing for War Against Iraq, America'S Image Is Fast Eroding As the U.S. Throws Around Its Weight March 18 — Dan Vlasin, a 23-year-old teacher in Romania, has no doubts that the world would be better off without Saddam Hussein. But he's just as certain that America doesn't have the right to overthrow the Iraqi leader. "America is acting as if it were God," says Vlasin, from the city of Cluj in Transylvania. "Saddam Hussein is a paid assassin, but it's up to the Iraqi people to get rid of him."

Nuclear inspectors reportedly angry CHECKING FALSE U.S. LEADS WASTED TIME, SOURCE SAYS By Dan Stober Mercury News
As United Nations nuclear inspectors flee Iraq, some of them are angry at the Bush administration for cutting short their work, bad-mouthing their efforts and making false claims about evidence of weapons of mass destruction. Some inspectors are ``scandalized'' at the way President Bush and Secretary of State Colin Powell, among others, have ``politicized'' the inspection process, said a source close to the inspectors. None of the nuclear-related intelligence trumpeted by the administration has held up to scrutiny, inspectors say. From suspect aluminum tubes to aerial photographs to documents -- revealed to be forgeries -- that claimed to link Iraq to uranium from Niger, inspectors say they chased U.S. leads that went nowhere and wasted valuable time in their efforts to determine the extent of Saddam Hussein's arsenal of weapons banned after the 1991 Persian Gulf War.....
Some of the inspectors leave with a deep suspicion of U.S. motives. Some believe, for example, that recent flights of U.S. U-2 spy planes were intended to help the military draw up target lists, not to aid the inspectors in their search for weapons of mass destruction.

Iraq war could bring about regime change - in America By Leon Hadar
Americans remain divided over the need to go to war against Iraq, with some electoral and demographic groups, like Democrats and African-Americans and Hispanics, strongly opposing. Only about 40 per cent of Democrats compared to 75 per cent of Republicans support a war.
The country's mood is bad, with the latest Gallup poll showing that only 36 per cent of Americans are satisfied with the country's direction, and 61 per cent dissatisfied. Polls also indicate that more Americans are worried about the US economy than Iraq's WMDs.
