Russian response

President Putin was visibly angry after Turkish aircraft shot down a Russian fighter jet over Syria, and his most tangible response has come in the form of advanced surface-to-air missiles, and a threat to use them. With NATO and Russia seemingly in stark opposition in the Syria war, is there still any hope for cooperation?

European nerves

The hunt for Europe's most-wanted man, a key suspect still at large after the deadly attacks on Paris, is still going, but in the Belgian capital of Brussels -- from which a handful of the ISIS-linked militants came -- people are making a furtive attempt to get back to life as normal.

Kill or capture

The U.S.-led war in Afghanistan yielded hundreds of foreign terror suspects to for interrogation, but now, as President Obama promises to intensify the U.S. campaign against ISIS, it seems likely he'll rely more on lethal force. So why the change in tactic, and what are the implications for the long-term strategy?

NYPD on horseback

New York City police are ramping-up security for the millions expected to arrive for Thanksgiving, and the plans include the deployment of more police on horses.

Pharma windfall

Pfizer says the enormous tax savings it will get by acquiring Irish drugmaker Allergan for $160 billion will allow the merged company to invest in the U.S. and create jobs. But will it really? The recent history of Pfizer and other big U.S. companies suggests that may not be the case.
