I am so HAPPY that they are ignoring Bush - that just makes my day :)

[Reagan Man]

I suspect, Israel will have moved out of the west bank towns, just prior to Sec Powell's arrival. The question is, will the suicide bombings start up again?

[RamsNo1]

Don't you know that Bush and Sharon had this all worked out in advance? He told me so himself in a dream last night.

[Howlin]

Did you think they wouldn't? Geez.

[Lucas1]

I am really disappointed in Bush. How can he possibly ask them to withdraw? I mean give me a break...I hope Israel enters each and every house and confiscates their weapons..their bombs...and whatever else they see fit. I have been "over it" for months on this whole subject. I am THRILLED that Israel finally is fighting a REAL war and not some 1/2 assed job. GO ISRAEL!

[Theophilus]

Israel just refuses to drop dead, hmmmm how obstinate of them.

Bush refuses to maintain any semblance of credibility.

[Cold Heat]

The call for withdrawl is simply to give Powell some credibility with the Arabs. We will need their help to make a ceasefire work. It is nothing more.

[Ronin]

I think Sharon is following a complete op-plan and he is only about one third of the way through it. He is not going to stop now. He is going to keep grinding until the PA is crushed.

[Reagan Man]

I am so HAPPY that they are ignoring Bush...

You'd be surprised to learn, that President Bush is working with PM Sharon, behind the scenes. What you see in public, is not what's happening behind closed doors. Believe it!

[AmericanInTokyo]

Here's a Bump FOR Israel. A Bump FOR the War on Terrorism.

A Bump AGAINST President Bush, Colon Bowell and the State Department.

Yep! I am sure that neither one makes a public statement without consulting the other. Bush said what he had to say to appease the Arabs. Now the ball is in the arab court to appease Sharon. *BRILLIANT*

Here is a screw you bump.

[l33t]

Israel is very wicked, when attacked it dares to fight back much to the displeasure of the "international public opinion." Don't they know that it is their duty to die at the hands of the very sane members of the religion of peace?

[l33t]

Nope, sorry but its wishfull thinking on your part. IDF needs at least several more weeks to clean up the West Bank, but they will be forced to withdraw next week only to re-enter following the failure of Powell's mission which will cause more innocent Israeli civilians to be blown up.

[Democrats are liars]

"Israel ignores Bush withdrawal call" - and so would I.

Well they are good at knocking down empty buildings that's for sure. Why is Arafat still breathing? Don't ask Bush ask Sharon.

[dennisw]

Yep! I am sure that neither one makes a public statement without consulting the other. 

Don't kid yourself. It's a good relationship but not that good

Bush said what he had to say to appease the Arabs. Now the ball is in the arab court to appease Sharon. *BRILLIANT*

We shall see. You are mostly right

[l33t]

If Sharon terminates Arafat, the Europeans will go absolutely nuts and will impose sanctions on Israel and will demand that Israel get the treatment Serbs were administered not so long ago.

[Quicksilver]

It appears that your BUMPS canceled themselves to null.
