		<description><![CDATA[Most people still struggle to grasp what may have motivated Norway&#8217;s most-despised man, terrorist suspect Anders Behring Breivik, to kill dozens of people and harm hundreds of others. Time, the results of the ongoing investigation, and a careful reading of the &#8220;manifesto&#8221; Breivik released will surely provide some answers.

The more difficult challenge, however, is the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[WASHINGTON &#8212; Since 9-11, Americans have been rightly concerned about how the numbers stack up in the struggle against terrorism. Whether one calls it a war or something else, a sense of direction is not just necessary but vital.
Along those lines, a new report &#8212; &#8220;Are We Winning?&#8221; &#8212; by the bipartisan American Security Project, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On the eighth anniversary of 9/11, Americans are wasting time squabbling over counter-terrorism bragging rights, with former Bush administration officials hurling criticism and Obama team members attempting to deflect it. Rest assured, the nation&#8217;s adversaries relish, rejoice in and reap benefits from the divisiveness.

Recently, in a rebuttal to former Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security [...]]]></description>

The 1,000-day mark interests me far more than the sprouts of the administration&#8217;s early seeds.
