...police sanctions against Iraq. The attack was followed Friday by an explosion at the British Embassy in Sana'a, the Yemeni capital. The suspect list in both incidents would have to include the Osama Bin Laden network, in whose stomping ground it occurred, and whose leader might see Arab rage against Israel and the U.S. as an opportunity to burnish his claims to pan-Islamic leadership.

Its agenda for years has called simply for Israel to be swept into the Mediterranean...
