    US-Israeli Friendship

    Good points. In their defense, they did get Libya to roll, but considering that Libya, like Iraq, didn't have much to give, you start to wonder about "Cheney's unhealthy obsession with Iraq" [paraphr]. Putting the blame on Tenet (remember, this whole thing is being engineered by the Reagan...
