ALGERIAN SPECIAL forces stormed a natural gas plant in the Sahara Desert Sunday, ending a hostage situation that reportedly\u00a0claimed over 80 lives<\/a>, including those of the 32 militants who attacked the plant last week. It is unclear if any of the hostages survived.<\/p>\n The group claiming responsibility claimed the attack was a response to military action against comrades in neighboring Mali, where French troops (with British support) and a pan-African force (with American support<\/a>) are moving against Islamist militants. Although the attack was apparently planned long before the French military was deployed in Mali, the question remains: Who is telling the whole truth about Western military involvement?<\/p>\n Also: President Obama sworn in for the third and fourth times; horse meat in the burgers at Tesco; Senator Kirk sees angels<\/a>; parallels between Rome and the U.S.; and the contentious year ahead in bioethics<\/a> according to Wesley J.
