  7. Pope shows lifetime jobs aren't always for life

    The world seems surprised that an 85-year-old globe-trotting pope who just started tweeting wants to resign, but should it be? Maybe what should be surprising is that more leaders his age do not, considering the toll aging takes on bodies and minds amid a culture of constant communication and change.

  8. Should Obama have gone to Israel?

    President Obama flew to Israel on Wednesday to reassure Israelis that the U.S. will stand with them against their enemies. It&rsquo;s his first visit to Israel as president, even though he visited Cairo a few years ago. He has sparred in the past with Prime Minister Netanyahu over issues such as settlements on the West Bank. Some have suggested that Mr. Obama&rsquo;s trip was unnecessary if there's no hope of advancing Mideast peace. Others have said the president needs to pay his respects to Israel as head of state and that his visit will make the region more secure. What&rsquo;s your view?

  9. Justice for genocide in Guatemala?

    GUATEMALA CITY &mdash; When a judge ruled to admit all the prosecution documents and expert witnesses in the genocide trial here of Gen. Efra&iacute;n R&iacute;os Montt last week &mdash; ensuring that Guatemala will be the first country in history to try one of its own heads of state for the most egregious crime against humanity &mdash; no triumphal smiles crossed the faces of courtroom observers. Some had been working toward this moment for years: two elderly women who between them lost a brother and a son among the 200,000 dead and disappeared over 36 years of guerrilla warfare and military dictatorship; indigenous Maya survivors from the highlands, where the army by its own account erased entire villages; those who spent their young adulthood in exile, then returned before it was safe to do so, throwing themselves into the tedious labor of collecting the evidence now being used against the general.
