		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve written before about Bletchley Park, when, in 2008, closure seemed imminent and the UK government seemed unable and unwilling to do much to keep it alive. Now Google has offered to help restore Bletchley Park &#8212; an admirable endeavour that is very welcome, given the site&#8217;s significance in World War II history. As a [...]]]></description>

Ο λόγος ήταν η τεράστια σημασία του εγχειρήματος, τόσο για εμένα, όσο και για εκατομμύρια συμπολίτες μου αλλά και για την ευρύτερη σημασία της διάθεσης του αρχείου, μιας μοναδικής κληρονομιάς και μέρος της ιστορίας αυτού του τόπου.

		<description><![CDATA[Missile Defence is a controversial issue that has troubled diplomats and military leaders alike for more than forty years. Ever since Ronald Reagan proposed the Strategic Defence Initiative (SDI), later nicknamed &#8216;Star Wars&#8217; after the synonymous film and due to its alleged inclusion of Space-Based Interceptors, Missile Defence has largely become a popular term, even [...]]]></description>
