I guess all those dead jewish people are thrilled that we wound up looking silly. GET REAL!!!! POWELL IS WRONG WRONG WRONG and all this posturing about whether he will or he won't meet with the murderer is what is driving all these terror attacks. FOR SHAME!!

Excuse me, but the suicide bombings started several months ago. They bomb if Powell comes, they bomb if he doesn't. They bomb if they are given concessions, they bomb if they are attacked.

I am not nuts about Powell, but his visit has nothing to do with whether there are suicide bombings or not.

I agree, oldfriend! He should not have given Arafat the credibility by meeting with him in the first place! Unlike other Republicans, I hate the wishy-washy policy we seem to have. Can't the Bush Administration make up its mind???
