YEMENI ATTEMPTS Yemeni judge Hamoud al-Hitar began visiting radical Muslim prisoners held in Yemeni detention centers and engaging them in theological debates as early as 2000.9 In 2002, he was named head of the Dialogue Committee, an initiative called for by presidential decree, with a brief of rehabilitating imprisoned jihadists.10 With ideology at the core of radical organizations, Yemeni officials thought that by dialoguing and correcting beliefs, violence would be rejected by inmates once freed.

But that was before militias began threatening their Baghdad neighborhood and Umm Hiba and her daughter fled to Syria last spring. There were no jobs, and Umm Hiba's elderly father developed complications related to his diabetes.
RIYAQ, Lebanon -- The last of Syria's troops left Lebanon Tuesday after a bittersweet ceremony just a few miles from the border, ending a military presence that for much of the past 29 years helped Syria control Lebanon and confront Israel through proxy militias. Some Lebanese politicians and officials in Washington expressed concern, however, that Syria might continue exercising influence here through intelligence officials and its Lebanese political allies.
