...Oslo mandated the creation of a large armed Palestinian security force, both to maintain order and, to fulfill the agreement's requirement that the PA deploy its own forces to protect Israel's security from attack by Palestinians. Arafat ultimately created 12 separate security structures in Gaza and the West Bank, each answerable directly to himself. That allowed Arafat to play off potential rivals against one another and prevent the emergence of any significant challengers...
...going to lie," acknowledges Assistant FBI director Ken Senser, who has been brought in from the CIA to re-invent the bureau's security system. "But background investigations should be robust enough to get a hint that there are issues that require deeper examination." Senser says he intends to deploy more aggressive background investigators, with experience in conducting probing interviews that elicit indications of psychological and integrity problems. In the past, background investigators, generally retired FBI agents working on contract, rarely went beyond the subject's hand-picked character references. This practice was sharply criticized by the Webster commission, which...
...Senate, Republicans and Democrats may support a war resolution, but before they do the White House will have to jump through two hoops. Bush will have to tell Democratic and Republican senators "how you do it," says this foreign policy aide. He'll have to explain how he'll deploy regular forces and mobilize the reserves - particularly if he plans an invasion force of 250,000 - and he'll have to satisfy senators that he's made his case for an invasion before the American people. Second, Bush will have to spell out "what happens after you succeed," says this...
...show, Arabs have excellent historical memories. Even those born after 1967 know the story very well. Certainly each government has powerful reasons to refrain from anything more than diplomatic protests even if Arafat is killed. Egypt would lose the U.S. aid that pays for the very weapons it would deploy ($2 billion a year) and for much of its daily bread. Jordan is likewise dependent, Syria's equipment is too outdated to risk war, and even Saddam Hussein can hardly threaten Israel with ballistic missiles and weapons of mass destruction whose existence he strenuously denies...
...stiffer and lighter (the bane of convertibles past was lumbering weight and rattle). "Airflow management" is now a priority--with windshields shaped to reduce wind so you can actually hear that nine-speaker stereo. And upscale roadsters like the Mercedes SL500 feature pop-up roll bars that can deploy in a third of a second. (Such bars, however, won't necessarily save you in a rollover. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration doesn't test convertibles for rollover safety, but a spokesman cautions that in general the bars' effectiveness may be limited...
