    Is Iraq Helping or Hurting the War on Terror?

    Republicans and Democrats find different messages in the National Intelligence Estimate partly declassified by President Bush. What does it say about the war in Iraq and the war on terror?   What are the implications for the November elections?   Does the Estimate provide any guidance for what to do next in Iraq?   Also, the bullish stock market, and the cancellation of a work by Mozart by Berlin’s German Opera company. Is fear of Islamic extremism curtailing free speech?
