This David Ignatius column is worth reading just because of the story it tells -- Russian agents used a carbomb to kill a Chechen separatist in Qatar, which caught the agents and is now preparing to try them. It also suggests how fuzzy this idea of a "war on terrorism" is -- when Russian agents in one of our best Middle Eastern allies use a car bomb to kill someone with (alleged) links to Al Qaeda, who are we supposed to invade?
