FILE - In this Feb. 4, 2010 photo Israel's Mossad spy agency chief Meir Dagan speaks during a meeting at the Knesset, Israel's parliament. The death of a Hamas operative at the hands of a hit team of inconspicuous lookouts and burly killers in a Dubai hotel conjures up images of both the mysterious deaths that followed the murder of Israeli athletes in the 1972 Munich Olympics and the bungled attempt to poison another Hamas leader in the Jordanian capital in 1997.

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN - MARCH 20: Houses stand for miles in the cityscape of Kabul from the summit of the Bala Hissar, an ancient fortress overlooking Kabul March 20, 2010 in Kabul, Afghanistan.

In most cities an edifice with the history of the Bala Hissar would be a popular tourist attraction; in war-torn Kabul it sits mostly ignored on a hill overlooking the city, overgrown with weeds and used mostly as a communications tower, while being guarded intermittently by small detachment of Afghan Army soldiers.
