Israel Cabinet 7 for and 7 against toppling Arafat....plusIsrael Turns Palestinian Towns into Prisons

[Max Sawicky]

I don't see any, except for the slim possibility of a
far-sighted, rational State Department.

Two more depressing data-points in this vein:
Joe Lieberman's advocacy of an Iraq invasion,
and Chuck Schumer's likening of Arafat
with the Taliban.  Put this together with the
likelihood that somebody like Al Gore would
feel obliged to over-compensate in military
response to terrorism and we are almost at
the point where the Dems, at least in terms of
the presidential race, really are not the lesser
of evils from a liberal standpoint.
