Maybe Israel is trying to "steam us up", but I remember it being widely reported right after we started bombing in Afghanistan that it was suspected that some Al Qaida members had fled to find shelter in the West Bank.

They knew we were trying to find a peaceful solution there, while calling their other favorite hiding places, ie Iraq, Iran, part of the axis of evil.

GWB also hasn't made any secret of the fact that Somolia, Lebanon, and Syria are prime targets for US Military action should those governments decide to harbor the terrorists.

some Al Qaida members had fled to find shelter in the West Bank.

In fact I believe they were looking to move some operations into Palestinan territory.

We don't need an alien invasion as long as we have the Mideast.
