 Internet Resources on American Foreign Policy
There are also numerous articles being written about the new president’s likely direction in foreign policy, such as this feature in the Jerusalem Post, describing likely appointees for top foreign policy slots and these White House guides by the New York Times and the Washington Post wp-dyn/politics/fedpage/administration/> wp-srv/onpolitics/elections/cabinet/bushcabinet.htm>.
In the Senate, it is the Foreign Relations , Appropriations , Armed Services , and Energy and Natural Resources committees, as well as the Senate Select Committee On Intelligence where foreign policy decisions are made.
As the prime institution for forming American foreign policy, the White House is one of the most important sites for gathering information on policy initiatives.

Having determined that Wiard's claims under his own policy for his loss of parental consortium are not separate from the compensation for the wrongful death claim that Wiard settled in his capacity as personal representative, the loss of consortium is subsumed under the settlement for the bodily injuries suffered by Wiard's daughters.
He charges that his own policy addresses his own emotional injury that resulted from their deaths, and that his emotional injury was not contemplated in the settlement of the daughters' claims.
In this case, State Farm argues that Schmick requires an offset against Wiard's UIM coverage of $200,000 for the $200,000 the Devlin policies paid to settle the wrongful death claims of the children's estates.

The appellant, Simon Graham, who was Lawrence Graham's uncle, and who initially received the proceeds, claims that the trial court erred in holding that the policy was marital property and in directing him to turn over the proceeds.
In her complaint, she alleged that the term life insurance policy was marital property and that the beneficiary change on the policy was in violation of the pendente lite provision enjoining the dispersion of marital assets.
As a consequence of his death, the proceeds of the term life insurance policy, which amounted to $70,000.00, were paid to Simon Graham, as the designated beneficiary at the time of death.

In her complaint, she alleged that the term life insurance policy was marital property and that the beneficiary change on the policy was in violation of the pendente lite provision enjoining the dispersion of marital assets.
The owner of such policy is foreclosed from transferring the spouse as named beneficiary on the policy once a divorce proceeding is filed and a pendente lite order is entered precluding the disposition of marital assets.
Under the foregoing law, we conclude that a term life insurance policy obtained as an employment benefit during the marriage is marital property under W.Va. Code, 48-2-1(e)(1).

My impression is that the WP and other opposition parties have long criticised the PAP for its policy of giving ministers and high-ranking civil servants very high salaries, because they view these jobs as not needing the luxury.
The reason why I think the Workers’ Party wants more information is to substantiate their stand even better, and if their stand is truly wrong after being shown more information, I am sure the WP is ready to change it.

 Goodbye, Columbus? Scott Shuger
The NYT's coverage of the hearts and mind stage of the Iraq run-up suggests more of an uphill battle than does the WP's: "A day after U.S. policy toward Iraq was passionately picked apart at a town hall meeting in Ohio, President Clinton tried to reassemble the pieces.."
The WP reports that President Clinton warned Saddam Hussein not to mistake the skeptical questions raised at the raucous Columbus forum as a sign that Americans lack resolve for military action.
The anthrax story also makes the NYT and LAT fronts, but is pushed inside at the WP.

 ISRAEL
Albright can't recognize that decades of "bulldozers" necessarily produce suicide bombers, although she was quick to find that much less repression in Kosovo produced "freedom fighters;" nor can she distinguish between systematic policy (i.e., bull- dozers) and uncontrollable outbursts from victims that do NOT constitute policy.
For Albright, "security" is primary, and she told Arafat that "she needed a commitment and action on the subject of security" before she could make a credible approach to Israel on other issues (WP, Sept 12, 1997).
So it is not Israeli policy, which amounts to a continuous and illegal assault on and displacement of the Palestinians, that is ultimately at fault and that must be changed to resolve this conflict.

 Suit to a VP By Caroline Benner
The WP is reporting that police investigators believe the kidnappers always intended to kill Pearl and videotape the execution, perhaps to retaliate against the United States for the war in Afghanistan, or perhaps because people with ties to secret Pakistani government agencies didn't like a story he was pursuing.
The WP says the combined company could be the largest in the defense contracting business, and the LAT puts some numbers behind that assertion, noting that the over $26 billion in sales the enhanced Northrop would generate would put it in first, ahead of Lockheed Martin.
The LAT leads with the assertion that the administration is considering declaring war-on-terrorism on Colombia's leftist rebels and making their destruction a policy priority.

WP should have developed a similar line to the one formulated by Trotsky towards the ILP in the 1930s: intervening in the SLP to pose a revolutionary transitional programme in opposition to Scargill's little-England reformist nationalism, while demanding that the SLP adopt a united front policy towards Labour.
The CPGB, a group smaller than WP, participated in the SLP, but continued producing its weekly paper.

WP could have developed a similar line formulated by Trotsky towards the ILP in the 1930s: intervening into it, opposing a revolutionary transitional programme to Scargill’s little-England nationalism and reformism, while it demanded that the SLP adopt a united front policy towards Labour.
The CPGB, a group much smaller than WP, participated in the SLP without ceasing to print its weekly paper.
To actively intervene inside the SLP doesn’t mean the same as dissolving the organisation or ceasing to publish its paper and journals.

Public diplomacy seeks to change attitudes about the U.S. and U.S. actions by "telling the story" of the U.S. better and by promoting "Brand USA." Many doubts its actual potential for success since U.S. foreign policy, which is most often cited as the reason for anti-U.S. sentiment, remains unchallenged and unchanged.
