Zeev,
Thanks for the correction, but I think you reinforced my point, which was that none of the wars were "preemptive" as Brightness claimed. I couldn't recall the details of how the Suez conflict began, though I knew that Nasser had done something or another to begin it. 1982 comes the closest to being preemptive (aside of course from the Iraqi reactor bombing, but that wasn't a war and was successful exactly because it was so well defined), but even then, Israel was being attacked, though not by an official national "army". The preemptive part of it was continuing to the Beirut subhurbs--and that was part of the disaster that followed, as I would at least guess you agree.

BTW, if you recall the name of that ambassador who told Saddam that Iraqi-Kuwaiti matters were internal, could you repeat it? Thanks.

A new virus has been detected that you may want to take precautions against. Be careful, if you try to solve this virus problem, you will be castigated in the media and by the UN.
This is the Palestinian Virus - a virus that settles in your PC, claims it was there before your PC was built or Bill Gates was born, then demands parts of your hard drive.

If you want the virus to leave you and your PC alone, you can try to give the virus the hard drive space it wants, but it will refuse the deal and start killing data on your computer.

Some people have suggested a solution for this virus problem is to give the virus its own PC. As stated above, this virus has been known to refuse the offer. Other nearby PCs wont take the virus either, even if the virus is compatible with the other computers.

The virus seems to want nothing less than to take over your entire computer, with the removal and destruction of all your data.

Software based anti-virus solutions have been proposed, but so far only hardware solutions have had any impact. The only solution we have been able to determine that may work is physical removal of the virus from your computer. The only problem with this solution is all the other computers will object.
