"They resorted to deceit and violence in order to maintain their dictatorial colonialist rule. They manipulated everything and committed all manners of outrage everywhere. For example, with the secret agents, regular police, inspectors, and other public officials as their agents they intimidated, menaced, slandered, framed, and arrested non-party public figures.

Little has emerged about the process behind those episodes, but aides described Mr. Obama’s decision making as crisp and efficient.

The ceremony's music director confided that the reason for the switch was "the national interest."
