According to a report published on Monday in The New York
Times, a high-level defector from Iran's intelligence
agency said that Iran was behind the bombing of the AMIA
Jewish community center in Buenos Aires almost exactly eight
years ago on July 18, 1994. The explosion murdered 85 people. Thousands participated in levayas filled with pain and
grief last Wednesday and Thursday for seven of the nine
victims killed by terrorists last Tuesday afternoon at the
entrance to the Samarian town of Emanuel. Among the dead is
an infant, born prematurely to his wounded mother, as well as
children and young adults. In the wake of the Supreme Court's decision that educational
vouchers do not violate the U.S. Constitution, attention is
turning to the states, where most of the actual voucher
programs to be proposed will be crafted.
