Editorial: No Arab Cooperation with American Investigators
After almost a year, American officials in Yemen investigating the October 2001 terrorist attack on a U.S. Navy destroyer are no closer to making a connection to suspected mastermind Usamah bin Ladin. Just as the investigation following the bombing of a U.S. Air Force housing complex in Saudi Arabia in 1996, Arab states are not cooperating with the United States. Why not?

In a Media Wilderness
As America laps up the news of post-World Trade Center events, no one stops to give the Arab-Americans a fair chance, as they, like all Americans deserve. Why is this so: are all Americans as bad as one another; or is it a bit more deep rooted than that?

The one who got away: Norwegian bin Laden humor (Part I of II)
Being an enormous admirer of Kathleen Stokker&#8217;s work, <I>Folklore Fights the Nazis: Humor in Occupied Norway 1940-1945</I> (1995), I couldn&#8217;t help but take notice when anti-bin Laden jokes started filtering into my inbox. Most Americans, at least, have received more than their share of anti-Taliban, anti-bin Laden witticisms and manipulated images. As Stokker suggested of humor in occupied Norway, these kinds of jokes serve to bind citizens together in a common sense of patriotism and resistance. They not only inspire a light-hearted optimism in the face of tragedy, but also foreground expectant hopes in the directed search for the one who got away. So, how do Norwegian anti-bin Laden jokes figure into this scheme?

The one who got away: Norwegian bin Laden humor (Part II of II)
With Osama bin Laden as the missing value, since his disappearance, these jokes fill in the gaps of uncertainty regarding what will happen in the future, how our identity is defined, and how humanity is a shared condition. They are a response to questions about what we would do, what we have done, and what we know has been done. Furthermore, these jokes differentiate Norway from the US by appealing to previous traditions of war-time experience &#8211; those of occupied Norway. With these jokes, a sympathetic hand is warily extended, cognizant of the fact that all hands are soiled. As the saying goes, &#8220;In the dark, all cats are gray.&#8221;

Theories, Facts, and Conjecture about the War on Terrorism

An Italian Leader: Berlusconi the Crusader
While US and European leaders are trying to put together a large coalition against the fundamentalist supporters of terrorism, the Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi has caused a diplomatic incident with his declaration on the supremacy of the western civilization. Berlusconi, a media tycoon running Italy since May, is not at his first blunder. Italian voters know his loquacity, but still this didn&#8217;t keep them from sending him to government with the elections held in May. Since, Italy&#8217;s prime minister, who is also on trial for bribery, has not resolved any of his numerous conflicts of interests, among them his fear of international investigations, which are now necessary to seize the terrorists&#8217; financial resources. Yet, as a traditional friend of Arab nations, Italy could still play an important role in the current diplomatic game due to the presence of the former Afghan king Zahir Shah in Rome.
