Living with terror
I WAS 10 years old on Sept. 11, 2001; so young that half my life has been lived in the shadow of those horrifying attacks. I remember the nights right afterward, hearing planes flying overhead and being terrified that one of them was going to crash into my house just as they had crashed into the Twin Towers. Five years later, I was sitting in Heathrow Airport in London, wondering why my flight home had unexpectedly been canceled as police officers with guns and bomb- sniffing German shepherds patrolled the terminal.

WASHINGTON - The 300th British soldier was killed in Afghanistan last week, which means that, proportionately, Great Britain is paying a higher price in manpower and money out there. That's 300 dead in a 10,000-troop commitment compared with the United States' 1,126 deaths with a commitment of more than 94,000 troops right now.
The debate in London - "Why are we in Afghanistan?" - seems more heated over there, but the essentials of the arguments are about the same.

Americans stand aghast at the chaos that unfolded in Britain last week. Young people rioted, burned and looted their way across London neighborhoods for days. Two vastly different narratives about why it all happened are competing for the public's ear.
