Archie's Corner

Arch. . .it appears that Israel is pulling out of Palestine. I believe after Cheney completed his rounds he brought up the concerns with Iraq. If the Palestinian border on the side of Isreal is occupied by Israel. ..that would weaken the front on the Iraqian side. . .which in turn would make Palestine vulnerable to occupation by Iraq. At least, that's what I'm seeing here. Unless Iraq permits U.N. investigators to go in and research their "weapons of mass destruction" program, some type of action on Iraq seems inevitable. It would seem likely that Cheney is trying to keep the surrounding/neighboring countries of Iraq strong. ...so they can protect their own borders when action takes place with Iraq. Diplomacy at its best. We're just going to have to watch. I sincerely hope Hussain permits investigators inside. From what I have read, Bush has made it clear that a "no" answer is not one of the options. And we all know of the statement from Hussain on the first go-around. What an uncomfortable feeling it must be to be living in the Middle East.

Peace,
