The U.S. government intercepted at least 18 e-mails between Hasan and Anwar al-Awlaki, a radical American-born cleric. "There are some who are reluctant to call it terrorism but there is significant evidence that is. I\'m not at all uneasy saying it sure looks like that," Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., said after a briefing from Pentagon and Army officials. </div> <div style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> <a href="http://news4colorado.com" target="_blank" style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;">news4colorado.com</a> - 2009-11-21 00:30:00 GMT </div> </li> <li style="margin-bottom : 4px;list-style : none;"> <div style=""> <a href="http://rssfeeds.usatoday.com/~r/usatoday-NewsTopStories/~3/j0bECvx_XEo/2009-11-20-Army-armor_N.htm" target="_blank" style="font-weight : bold; font-size : 1em; color : inherit;" >Army to review how it tests body armor</a> </div> <div style="margin : 2px 0px; font-size : inherit ; color : inherit;"> The Army says there will be an outside review of how body armor for its soldiers is tested. </div> <div style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> <a href="http://usatoday.com" target="_blank" style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;">usatoday.com</a> - 2009-11-20 21:31:21 GMT </div> </li> <li style="margin-bottom : 4px;list-style : none;"> <div style=""> <a href="http://cbs4denver.com/national/fort.hood.review.2.1324941.html" target="_blank" style="font-weight : bold; font-size : 1em; color : inherit;" >Lawyer Claims Nidal Hasan\'s Hearing Is At Hospital</a> </div> <div style="margin : 2px 0px; font-size : inherit ; color : inherit;"> Maj.

For he commands the Quds Force, an elite arm of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, and thus runs the dirty war that Iran has been conducting for decades against American interests in the Middle East. The White House has called him a terrorist. A UN Security Council resolution singles him out as a suitable target of sanctions. So why—if a report leaked to The Economist proves correct—would he recently have had a chat with General Raymond Odierno and Ambassador Christopher Hill, America’s two most senior officials in Baghdad? <p>The answer is that regional diplomacy requires Iran’s involvement if a stable Iraq is to have a chance of emerging after the election due in January. General Suleimani has great influence in Iraq through a web of politicians and insurgents. It was he who brokered a peace deal last year after Iraq’s security forces fought against the Mahdi Army militia loyal to a Shia cleric, Muqtada al-Sadr, who has spent most of the past two years in Iran. With American combat troops due to leave Iraq next year, American officials reluctantly, it seems, turned to General Suleimani. General Odierno and Mr Hill, who deny the event, are said to have met him in the office of Iraq’s president, Jalal Talabani, who has known the Quds Force commander for decades. “It’s a complicated world,” says an American official. ... </div> <div style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;"> <a href="http://economist.com" target="_blank" style="font-size : 1em; color : inherit;">economist.com</a> - 2009-11-19 17:46:20 GMT </div> </li> <li style="margin-bottom : 4px;list-style : none;"> <div style=""> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/economist/full_print_edition/~3/N_hDF3Q4CQs/story01.htm" target="_blank" style="font-weight : bold; font-size : 1em; color : inherit;" >Sri Lanka\'s retired army chief: General intentions</a> </div> <div style="margin : 2px 0px; font-size : inherit ; color : inherit;"> <p>The war’s winners fall out <p>WHEN Sarath Fonseka sought permission this month to retire as chief of Sri Lanka’s defence staff from December 1st, President Mahinda Rajapaksa replied through his secretary that the general, who had led his government’s victory against the Tamil Tigers, could consider himself retired with immediate effect.
