Britain’s influential Economist magazine,The Economist, with a global readership, sulked loudly at the election of Ariel Sharon, announcing in a cover headline, “Sharon’s Israel, the world’s worry.”

Isn't it a shame the Economist was not worrying and warning about Osama Bin Laden and Islamic terrorism instead. 5000+ Americans and others might be alive now.

Arafat and Sharon are both terrorists, and are not responsible enough to resolve that situation. Now they are asking for our help, but don't listen to our government's orders to stop the Hatfield-McCoy c**p.
