Fu to us foreign policy

[Arthur Dent]

Daisy cutters were only used in mountain valleys and confirmed bases not on towns. And I saw plenty of reporters in flack jackets riding around the country and videoing the bombs dropping. If reporters were kept out of an area, it's becasue we were about to drop bombs on the area and the reporters would have been killed.

And we never stopped the Red Cross from giving aid. We ENCOURAGED it.

We worked with the locals to overthrow a corrupt and oppresive government and we are still working to help the civilians.

I am very proud of what the US did in Afghanistan. It's something we should be consistent about and move into the Palestinian territories.

Arafat has already said many times he wanted UN Peacekeepers to take over the area. Time to call his bluff. We go in, repair all the damage, secure a Palestinian state, and get rid of Arafat. Put him on trial and have him convicted as a terrorist along with all the other terrorists in his cabinet. Then hold democratic elections.

Isreal can not do this. Their very presence in the territories causes more violence. Sharon says he won't stop until the Palestinian's stop fighting. Well, as long as the IDF is inside Palestinian lands, even the non-terrorists are going to fight because they believe they are defending their families and their land.

Sharon has said he will pull out this Sunday. If he keeps his promise, then this is the first opportunity for peace. Powell needs to get back there and start the process. And play rough.
