BEIRUT, Lebanon - A terrorist network led by a Yemeni national planned to kill the U.S. ambassador to Lebanon earlier this year by firing a rocket-propelled grenade into his car, judicial officials said Thursday.
The attack was to have taken place during a visit by U.S. Ambassador Vincent Battle to the northern port city of Tripoli on Jan. 15, the officials said on condition of anonymity.

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - The top U.S. officials in Iraq acknowledged on Thursday troops were overstretched in parts of the country and looters and revenge killers were taking advantage of the postwar power vacuum.
But the U.S. military and civilian administration in Iraq said the current total of fewer than 150,000 troops in the country would not rise significantly and they needed Iraqis to take on policing duties.

Senate Ratifies Adding 7 Nations to NATO
WASHINGTON - The Senate voted unanimously Thursday to support adding seven eastern European nations to NATO, hailing the shift of former communist states into free-market democracies allied with the United States and Western Europe.
"This is historic for these seven countries, vital in continuing to strengthen the North Atlantic alliance and central to U.S. security and relationships in the world," said Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Richard Lugar, R-Ind.
Blinded by Bush HatingPerhaps the most disheartening development of the war -- at home, anyway -- is the number of liberals who have allowed Bush-hatred to take the place of thinking. Speaking with otherwise perceptive people, I have seen the same intellectual tics come up time and time again: If Bush is for it, I'm against it. If Bush says it, it must be a lie. Their opposition to Bush has made liberals embrace principles -- such as the notion that the United States must never fight without U.N. approval except in self-defense -- to which the Clinton administration never adhered (see Operation Desert Fox in 1998, or the Kosovo campaign in 1999). And it has made them forget that there are governments in the world even more odious and untrustworthy than the Bush administration.
Galloway has some nerve to say this. Typical lib. Accuse others of your own misdeeds and/or crimes.
I have been stabbed in the back today by a party I have served for 35 years.
