Mexico - revolutionaries backed by former ruling party PRI have announced
that they will begin a campaign to topple the Vicente Fox administration.
Only civil unrest thusfar but could easily go in a very dangerous direction.
Colombia - CNN has at least one story a day about deteriorating conditions.
The ME description of Colombia looks awfully optimistic compared to reality.
Chechnya - American was kidnapped on Monday by rebels and the Russians are
washing their hands of the entire affair.
Northern Ireland - a group calling itself "The Real IRA" is pledging to
renew terrorist attacks against the UK.
United States - Earth Liberation Front is poised to begin a rash of bombings
and arson according to the FBI. A string of murdered hunters is suspected
to be linked to this group as well.
Anyone else?
